Bria Monroe is done begging to be loved.
After a messy divorce, a mountain of bills, and years of making herself smaller for a man who never truly saw her, Bria has one goal: keep her kids safe, open her beauty studio, and stay far away from heartbreak.
Then Malik "Saint" St. James walks into her life.
He's younger. Fine. Disciplined. Dangerous in the quietest way. As an NFL trainer with a past people still whisper about, Malik should be the last man Bria trusts around her heart, her children, or her fragile peace.
But Malik doesn't look at Bria like she's too much.
He looks at her like she's everything.
When their connection becomes public, Bria is dragged into gossip blogs, custody threats, jealous exes, and old secrets that refuse to stay buried.
