Mike, my brother's cocky neighbor, seems like an arrogant jerk at first glance. But when darkness falls, he transforms into something entirely different—my refuge from the trauma of childhood abuse, the one who helps me piece together my shattered heart. By day, he's a charming playboy with a reckless "love 'em and leave 'em" attitude that screams trouble. By night, he's my protector, my anchor, the person who chases away my demons. Falling for someone like him was never the plan, especially when his reputation for casual flings runs deeper than his capacity for commitment. Yet somehow, he became the one person who sees all of me—the broken parts I hide from the world. Warning: my heart didn't stand a chance.
