First - Paperback

There's rock bottom-and then there's me.

 

Hades retired from the business to be a family man, so I'm running the show on my own. After everything that happened with Sofia, he's revoked his friendship. I've apologized many times but an apology won't fix what I've broken. I spiral into a dark place, and there's only one light in my life-Annabelle.

 

When she walks into my office with that hard spine and confidence, I nearly mistake her for an executive. She asks me to remove her off a checking account and I quickly realize she's divorced-and broke. The small deposits she makes come from her nights working as a waitress in a café. But she gives me this look, like she'll cut off my balls if I pity her. After she leaves my office, I can't stop thinking about her.

 

I show up at her restaurant and ask for a date-but she gives me the answer I don't want to hear. Newly divorced and broken, she's not in the right place for a relationship. But no problem there-because neither am I.

 

I'm just as broken as she is.
