Description
Leah Johnson has spent years hiding her heartache. As a Black woman in a town where society dictates who she can be -- and who she can love -- she knows better than to dream of a future with Adam Davenport. Her best friend. Her fiercest protector. The only man she has ever wanted. But longing for him is dangerous, and giving in could cost her everything.
Adam Davenport has built his life around keeping Leah safe, even from himself. He has always known that loving her openly would put a target on her back. In Bonham, a man like him can take whatever woman he pleases -- except her. So he forces himself to look away, to push her toward a safer choice.
But when another man dares to claim her, Adam's restraint shatters. Suddenly, keeping his distance is no longer an option. His desire is no longer a secret. And neither is the danger that follows.
Now, with old enemies watching and the town's judgment closing in, Adam must decide: will he let Leah go to keep her safe, or will he risk everything -- including her life -- for a love that was never meant to survive?
A sweeping historical romance of passion, prejudice, and the fight for a love too powerful to be denied.
