She rebuilt her empire. But can she trust love to rebuild her heart?

After a very public betrayal and divorce from her ex-husband and business partner, beauty mogul Simone Carter escapes to the Georgia coast to rediscover herself—and protect what’s left of her brand. With her company in limbo and her personal life shattered, romance is the last thing on her mind.

Until she meets Elijah Brooks—a retired NFL star turned private chef who’s traded fame for a quiet life and soulful food. Elijah isn’t impressed by headlines or the glamorous version of Simone the world sees. He’s drawn to the woman behind the brand: raw, resilient, and hiding more pain than she lets on.

Their chemistry is instant. Their connection? Unexpected.

As their steamy connection deepens, old wounds and new challenges threaten the fragile peace Simone is rebuilding. When her past resurfaces and a career-defining deal is on the line, Simone must decide: will she protect her heart or take a second chance on the kind of love that heals?

After the Break is a soulful, steamy second-chance Black romance filled with emotional healing, boss-level growth, and the kind of intimacy that goes beyond the bedroom. Perfect for fans of Kennedy Ryan, Christina C. Jones, and Alexandria House.
