She never expected a night at an Atlanta strip club to introduce her to the man who would change everything. Alton Gere is everything she never knew she needed—six-foot-five, impossibly wealthy, devastatingly handsome, and surprisingly gentle. A billionaire NFL star with Southern manners and a heart that still remembers what it means to struggle, Alton doesn’t try to buy her attention. He simply pays attention. He listens. He remembers. And for the first time in a long time, she feels safe being herself. There’s just one problem. Adrian Vale. Powerful, possessive, and dangerously charming, Adrian has spent months keeping her trapped in a relationship that has no title but all the complications. He wants her, but he doesn’t know how to love her without trying to control her. And when he realizes another man is giving her the peace he never could, Adrian refuses to let her go quietly.
