FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES AND SUNDAY TIMES* MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR THE HIGHLY
ANTICIPATED FOLLOW-UP TO TIKTOK SENSATION THINGS WE NEVER GOT OVER AND THINGS WE HIDE FROM THE
LIGHT There was only one woman who could set me free. But I would rather set myself on fire
than ask Sloane Walton for anything. Lucian Rollins is a lean mean vengeance-seeking mogul.
Determined to erase his abusive father's mark on his family name he spends every waking minute
pulling strings and building his empire. The more money and power he gains the safer he feels.
Except when it comes to one feisty small-town librarian. Although they are bonded by a dark
secret from the past and their current mutual disdain Sloane Walton only trusts Lucian as far
as she can throw him. Until their bickering accidentally turns to foreplay fanning flames of
desire that can't be put out. But with Sloane eager to start a family and Lucian refusing to
even consider the idea these enemies-to-lovers are stuck at an impasse. And when Lucian
learns the hard way that leaving Sloane is impossible he vows to do everything he can to keep
her safe. Whatever the cost . . . REAL READERS LOVE THE KNOCKEMOUT(TM) SERIES 'I GENUINELY
