What started as the one who got away ended as the one I never wanted to see again. Now, he’s back. Seven years ago, Cole had the nerve to kiss me goodbye before he and our best friends ghosted me and went off to become rockstars. The kicker? They did it by stealing my song and destroying my life. Fast forward to now, and I’ve never been better. I’m the one pulling the strings behind the scenes, the one who makes sensations out of nobodies. Suddenly, my old friends need my help—practically beg for it. And Cole? He wants a second chance. I should despise him, loathe everything he stands for. But he’s working hard for my forgiveness, and damn it, our chemistry is still electric. I keep telling myself it’s a bad idea. What if he’s just using me like before? Can my heart take it, if he breaks it again? There’s too much at stake. There’s no way I can let him back in. Or can I?
