Once upon a time, a boy loved a girl before becoming the villain in every story—except hers.
There are no fairy tales in jail. Winter Baker serves his prison sentence without complaint, confident that his sacrifice allowed his three younger brothers the chance to live and rise above their father’s legacy of a despised Baker name, poverty, bruises, and broken bones. His brothers’ successes keep him from dwelling on what else he lost that fateful night. When Winter’s offered an early release in exchange for working for the Feds, he accepts the risks and knowledge he’ll face his biggest regret.
Sela Mack never recovered from losing her best friend and protector. Winter’s last phone call still haunts her. Twelve long years, and her heart’s still in stasis. But her first glimpse of Winter tells her three things she doesn’t want to know. He’s become cold and hard. He’s still keeping secrets. And he holds the power to break her all over again if she lets him.
Loving Winter’s a risk. Loving Sela’s a liability. But walking away has never felt like a viable option.
My Review:
Best friends to lovers.
I have been waiting for Winter’s book since I started this series and it was well worth the wait. I really enjoyed seeing Winter and Sela reunite and take their friendship to the next level even though Winter was warned to stay away from her. Winter has changed in prison, no longer the rebellious bad boy he once was, now he is working undercover to help take down the drug kingpin who has been using Serpent’s Ink as their distribution center. When the plans don’t go as expected and Sela is caught up in the middle, Winter will do anything to protect her.
