Running our family empire doesn’t leave room for distractions. Someone has to keep everything together, and that responsibility falls on me. But all it takes is one night to change everything, and suddenly the only thing capturing my attention sparkles as bright as the Las Vegas lights. One night is all we agree on. No expectations. No strings. But life has other plans. If there’s one thing about the Savage men, it’s that when we fall…we fall hard and fast. And we always get what we want. And I want Ace.

How is it possible to be surrounded by people who love me, yet I still feel alone? Everyone is falling in love, and it's like I've been left on the outside. I want that for myself, but the thought of putting myself out there is terrifying. Growing up being told you're "too much" puts a dent in your confidence, no matter how hard you try to hide it. Until one day, Lieutenant Hunter Bowen finds me trapped in an elevator. His kind words and gentle smile only heighten the crush I have on him, and when he asks me to join him one night, I push my fears aside and say yes.
