Bad Boys Do It Better

Growing up as a classically trained ballerina with dreams of being a professional dancer, balance was my life. Everything about me depended on it; my diet, my temper, my sleep and waking schedule. I even dedicated myself to rigorous yoga and martial arts training to learn how to maintain focus by balancing my breath. Balance was literally my everything.

Legend is on a mission, and it happens to be one he can’t speak about. Always a man of little words, keeping things close to the heart has never been a problem. Or at least it never used to be until January began to occupy that space. Now he’s fighting a battle between his mind and his heart, and unlike any battle he’s ever fought before, this is a war that no matter how it ends, sacrifice will be required.

After escaping a toxic marriage and rebuilding my life from the ground up, I thought the worst was behind me. I was wrong. Because the man I trusted, the one who made me feel safe again, was hiding a truth so dark, it could shatter everything we built. Lucky was supposed to end me. Now he’s the only reason I’m still breathing. The order to have me killed was just business. But Lucky’s refusal to follow through? That was personal. It started with surveillance and turned into something neither of us saw coming. But love built on secrets can only last so long before the past catches up.
