Rosalina Parks has always spoken through movement. Onstage, her dancing is fire sharp, graceful, alive. Offstage, her life feels muted, weighed down by a relationship that’s long since gone cold. When betrayal finally strips away the last of her patience, she makes a choice: walk away and claim back the pieces of herself she almost lost.

Owen Marshal, star quarterback and secret bear shifter, is running on empty. His game has slipped, his focus shattered, and the disappointment of his team hangs heavy on his shoulders. Pushed by friends to cut loose, he drags himself to a club, expecting nothing. Then he sees Rosalina spinning in the lights, fierce and unbroken and something inside him stirs back to life.

The draw between them is immediate, raw, impossible to ignore. But Rosalina’s trust has been fractured, and Owen carries the weight of his career and the secret of what he really is. With desire growing and pressure mounting, both must face the question neither wants to ask: is this just escape, or the start of something worth fighting for?

When the truth collides with the past, will they hold on or lose everything again?
