Just to Be with You

A swoon-worthy romance about opposites attracting, healing past scars, and finding love where you least expect it.

Janae Simms has sworn off love. After too many heartbreaks, the gentle and compassionate teacher is done risking her heart. But when her best friend drags her to a concert featuring R&B sensation Monte, Janae expects nothing more than a night of great music. That is, until she locks eyes with the man behind the voice—a moment that leaves her wondering if her heart is ready to take another chance.

Terrence "Monte" Campbell is used to women falling for his fame and fortune, not the man he is beneath the spotlight. Burned too many times, he’s built walls around his heart. But Janae is different—her warmth and authenticity stir something in him he thought he’d lost. Fighting his own fears, Terrence tries to keep his distance, but the pull between them is undeniable.

One unforgettable night changes everything, igniting a passion neither can resist. But with past wounds and trust issues threatening to tear them apart, can two people from different worlds find their happily ever after? Or will their love story end before it truly begins?
