Dominic Cavanaugh is the last man I should trust.
He is the drummer for the Ashfall Saints, one of the men standing inside the world that profited from my sister’s stolen song. I have spent five years gathering the evidence that will expose the fire, the fraud, and the powerful family that erased Elena’s name.
I did not come back for apologies.
I came to tear their lies apart.
When I corner Dominic in an empty parking garage with documents capable of destroying everything, I expect denial. Anger. Another famous musician protecting his career.
Instead, he looks at me as though he has been waiting for the Reyes name to find him.
The charming drummer the world knows is a performance. Behind the jokes and reckless grin is a sleepless man quietly falling apart. He is broke, burdened by secrets, and carrying guilt that began long before I walked into his life.
The more time I spend with him, the harder it becomes to see him as part of the enemy.
Dominic notices every crack in the control that has kept me standing. He sees the grief beneath my carefully chosen words, and I see the man he hides whenever anyone is watching. Somewhere between preparing for the public reckoning and uncovering what he has concealed for five years, the distance between us disappears.
One touch becomes one night when neither of us has to perform.
It should end there.
I still have a family empire to expose. Dominic still has secrets that could shatter the fragile trust growing between us. Soon, my sister’s name will be spoken before the world, and everyone who benefited from her silence will be forced to answer for it.
But justice is no longer the only future I want.
My heart belongs to the broken drummer who tried to make things right without ever asking to be forgiven. When every secret is finally dragged into the light, will Dominic let me choose him, or will the past take him from me too?
For readers of Kylie Scott, Kristen Callihan, and Brittainy Cherry. Scorching chemistry, devastating emotional depth, a guaranteed HEA, and one drummer who only plays the truth when nobody is listening.
