“There ain’t no love in his heart, Blue, so he will never be able to love you.” Blue Fleming has gone her entire life with a distorted view and definition of love and loyalty. After being conceived during an affair, she had to grow up without a father and a drug addicted mother. Though she has developed a tight bond with her half-sister and her best friend, Blue was convinced she’d never know how true love felt – until she met Messiah Edwards. Messiah Edwards has been trained to believe that women are disloyal, discontent, and unable to be satisfied. Because of this, he’s made his focus building an empire. Love, to him, is an inconvenience that needs to be avoided. For his twenty-one years of life, avoiding love has been easy – until he met Blue. Upon their first meeting, Messiah makes his character clear. He’s a beast. A beast with absolutely no desire to love, value, or save any woman. The more he hardens himself against Blue the more she’s drawn to him, and the more she’s drawn to him, the more Messiah finds himself softening towards Blue. There’s just one problem; Messiah’s heart has been void of love for years, and he doesn’t think any woman has the power to change that.
