Hassan Gaines was a name whispered in fear on the streets. A man who didn’t need a gun to end a life, making him the most feared force on the block. But power never erased his pain. Raised in the foster system, hardened by a past of neglect, and battling a mind that often felt like an enemy, Hassan had long accepted that he was built for war, not love. The only person who ever showed him kindness—his grandmother—is slipping away, leaving him with nothing but the cold, ruthless existence he’s always known.
Sevyn Love had spent her life helping others heal, but when she walked in on her boyfriend betraying her with her best friend, she realized she’d never learned to heal herself. Raised in privilege but determined to make her own way, she built a career as a therapist, helping the broken find their peace. Love, however, was the one thing she couldn’t seem to fix. And then came Hassan—her newest client. A man with more demons than she’d ever encountered, yet something about him called to her in ways she couldn’t ignore.
What started as a professional relationship turns into a dangerous pull neither of them can fight. Sevyn sees the man buried beneath the scars, and Hassan finds himself craving a woman who makes him believe he’s worthy of something more. But in a world where love is a weakness and the past never stays buried, can they survive each other?
