Finnian “Apollo” Reins met Dru Noel Rossi at his lowest.
She was a bright ray of sunshine in his darkest, cloudiest night.
He had no clue that he needed her. He was just struggling to keep his head above water, going from day to day, waiting for it to be his time to go.
But then she catches his eye in the swankiest restaurant in Washington DC. She’s wearing all black and sticks out like a sore thumb among the elitists’ otherwise dressiest affairs. She may have been severely underdressed, but that didn’t stop Finnian from following her every move and becoming obsessed.
So of course, when she leaves, he follows her. And wouldn’t you know it, she goes right back to his hometown.
But that’s not the first coincidence between the otherwise complete opposites. It’s just a long line of chance encounters that force them together, time and time again, and show them what they’re missing.
She’s the sweetest thing he’s ever met, and understandably, is hesitant to get anywhere near a Truth Teller like him.
The Truth Tellers MC got their hard, terrifying reputations for a reason.
But Finnian wears her down with his charm, while showing her what it’s like to be with someone that won’t hesitate to take out the entire world as long as it makes her smile.
He has to have her in his life, and he’ll do just about anything to make that happen. A little light stalking, financial blackmail and forced proximity never hurt anybody.
Apollo has a devastating past which he is still trying to make peace with. As a result, he has distanced himself from everyone including the Truth Tellers MC but when he sees Dru she inspires feelings in him that he can’t deny. A harrowing experience and some forced proximity bring them closer however the turmoil they must overcome is only beginning when they return home.
Dru has always tried to be there for her family which is how she finds herself on the plane where she meets Apollo. When they return to their normal lives she believes that they will go their separate ways however he isn’t about to let her walk out of his life and everything he learns about her only has him more determined to protect her.
After everything Apollo has been through I was glad to see him get a second chance at happiness and Dru is exactly who he needs. They are so supportive of each other as life continues to throw them curveballs which only makes their love stronger.
