Blurb:

After his ex shatters his heart and leaves him to be a single father, Joaquin Shepherd becomes a rake. The only emotion he feels for women is the pleasure he takes and gives in one-night stands. His life is turned upside down when his ex’s little sister, Aaliyah, shows up seeking his help one stormy night. The girl he once helped raise is now a woman in a life-or-death situation. As she sheds light on the lies that helped break him, he finds himself realizing just how grown and tempting she truly is.

Joaquin, her almost brother-in-law, is the only safe haven Aaliyah can turn to when her sister, Cailyn, and her drug-peddling boyfriend turn on her. Alone, and afraid she winds up on the doorstep of the only home she ever felt safe in. Taken begrudgingly under his wing, she seeks comfort and protection as her life becomes a dangerous nightmare. Suddenly, the man Aaliyah once looked to for strength and guidance awakened her libido and challenged her ideal future.

Pushed together by those blackmailing for money and seeking their ruin, they must lean on each other to survive.
