Relentless Habit

She survived the worst of herself. Now she has to survive him finding out.

Nine months clean. A steady job. A therapist who believes in her future more than she does. Cecilia Lyons has rebuilt her life brick by careful brick — and she's not about to let anyone knock it down.

Then Brock Sullivan pulls her onto a darkened dance floor and kisses her like he already knows her secrets.

He doesn't. Not yet.

What starts as one reckless, strobe-lit weekend becomes something neither of them planned for — something real, something terrifying, something worth fighting for. Brock is all quiet intensity and steady hands, an intern cop who sees through her careful walls and stays anyway.

But Cecilia's past isn't finished with her.

When her old pimp sends men to drag her back, Brock doesn't hesitate — even if protecting her means going to war with outlaw bikers, confronting his own family's shadows, and risking the badge he's worked his whole life to earn.

Now Cecilia faces the hardest choice of her recovery: trust the man who makes her feel safe for the first time, or run before loving him costs them both everything.

Two broken people. One reckoning. And a love that refuses to let either of them go quietly.
