Once she’s gone, he finds out that she’s everything he needs.
A tattooed, muscle-bound construction boss, Gage Walker specializes in restoring New Orleans’ historic buildings—and in avoiding anything that looks like a commitment.
Naomi LeBlanc is a lingerie shop owner with a zest for life that’s as vibrant as the city she calls home. Sophisticated yet wild, she’s unlike anyone Gage’s ever met.
For ten months, Gage does the impossible: he dates her—and only her. But when Naomi confesses she’s in love with him—and makes it clear that loyalty isn’t optional, Gage reminds her he’s never been the happily-ever-after kind of guy.
Heartbroken, she ends their relationship.
But Gage can’t get Naomi out of his head—or his heart. Every other woman feels like a pale shadow of the one who got away. When he sees Naomi with another man, jealousy ignites a fire he didn’t know existed.
For the first time in his life, Gage wants to get over past traumas and fight for a woman. But it looks like Naomi has moved on, and she may now be out of his league.
