Zayn McCabe was impossible to forget.

 

A ghost from my past—my best friend’s friend, my first kiss, and the boy who disappeared senior year. We didn’t get along then, and I had no reason to think we ever would.

 

Years later, he’s back.

 

Not the boy I knew but a man who owns the hottest club in Gracemont. A man with secrets in his eyes, danger in his smile, and a life I swore I’d stay far away from.

 

I don’t belong in his world. But I can’t help returning.

 

What started as a rivalry unexpectedly pulls me deeper into his world—a place where control slips through my fingers and the only thing I can hold on to is him. Zayn thrives in risk and shadows, and with every touch and every word, I fall further into the fire.

 

He’s not a man who’s safe to love. But with him, I feel more alive than I have in years.

 

Even if loving him means breaking every rule I’ve ever known.
