Breaking the Alpha

He’s a perfect disaster. She’s a perfect escape. 

River Baker has traded his failed marriage, a social media disaster, and his modeling career in LA for his hometown of Epson. Awaiting him is the notorious Baker reputation, a job at his brother’s tattoo shop, Serpent’s Tongue Ink, and there’s no escaping the judgment over why he couldn’t keep his ‘perfect life’ together. But when he meets a business woman who sees past his handsome façade to the scars he hides, River finds the true escape he seeks.

Angelina Watson owns Wholly Yours and strives to live a quiet life of balance. A free spirit who never felt like she belonged, Angelina has created her own peaceful world of candles, essential oils, and trinkets as unique as she is. The broken, conflicted River sets her passion and her bed on fire, but she wants to be his partner, not his crutch.

Torn between perfection, expectation, and love, River has a choice to make before Angelina makes it for him and walks away for good.
