Book - 2020

"'Run away from the boy that gives you butterflies, he's going to break your heart.' Morgan Atkins had been told that phrase ever since she was a little girl and still she had allowed herself to fall for the boy that made her heart flutter. After losing her first love, Morgan is terrified to love again. She's settled for a life with a respectable man. She has everything. She's living in the lap of luxury, and although she's comfortable, she's bored out of her mind. When a ghost from her past blows into town, she finds herself entangled in an illicit affair. It's wrong, but she can't fight the butterflies he gives her, and honestly she doesn't want to . She can't hide the natural at...traction she feels and soon she's so deeply involved that she can no longer tell where the boundary between right and wrong lies. Her heart is telling her one thing, but her head is saying another. Morgan has always been a spoiled girl and she tries to have it all, but when she's forced to choose between a good man and a bad boy, someone will end up hurt...and someone may just end up dead" -- Page 4 of cover.

Review by Booklist Review

Morgan Atkins has changed her life. After losing her great love, Messiah, Morgan packed up and left Flint, Michigan, for London. She has a rich fiancé and two beautiful children and plans to become a doctor. But she can't figure out why she is so sad. When Messiah's friend Ahmeek comes to London to see her, Morgan realizes that she misses her life back in Flint, where she danced with a performance group called the Stiletto Gang. She returns to Michigan, wondering if Meek can thrill her the way Messiah used to. But she can't bring herself to leave her fiancé completely and who is the mysterious man messaging her on Instagram? Urban-fiction superstar Antoinette (Luxe, 2015) starts Morgan's story at a leisurely pace; the novel is the first in a series, so Antoinette is able to dive deep into Morgan's internal conflict. Readers can also benefit from going back to the Ethic series (starting with Ethic, 2018), which precedes this one and features Morgan as well. Antoinette's smooth writing and strong characterizations will bring her fans back for the sequel.--Cari Dubiel Copyright 2019 Booklist
