Cath Talarico has made too many mistakes to count. The Chicago native sees London as her final chance to rebuild her life from scratch. She promises herself she won't repeat old patterns or fall into familiar traps. Then she meets Nev Chamberlain, a wealthy banker trapped in his family's financial empire. Everything about him screams danger for someone like her. He's wealthy, refined, and represents the establishment world she's always rebelled against. But Nev sees something in Cath that awakens his buried artistic soul. Her tattoos and rebellious spirit ignite fantasies he never knew he harbored. Despite their different backgrounds and opposing natures, their attraction proves impossible to resist. Cath must decide whether this relationship represents another destructive choice or the love that could finally transform her life. Their connection forces both to confront what they really want versus what others expect of them.
