Every great Romance ends with, 'I love you'. Nobody ever told Jamie Kent that the scene cuts there because real life gets messy. A series of disasters that might have led to the end of Jamie's found family instead opens doors. Connor Hastings Doyle, his one-time bodyguard and biggest crush, turns out to be the man of his dreams. One who makes it safe to put the fake smiles and shallow emotions of Hollywood in the rearview mirror. But to claim everything he's ever wanted, what bridges will Jamie have to burn? Noah Leonov imagined The Asylum as a place to escape the harsh world beyond its walls, but the judgment found within might have been his undoing. Until he returns to not only the foundation of where he began, but to the man with ice in his eyes who thawed his heart enough to let love in. Now if only he has the strength to keep his ark from sinking and make sure the gift of his collar is enough to keep his family whole. As one of the Club's main quads, the aftershocks from the shifts in Noah and Jamie's relationship could have the same impact as a grenade. Or bring everything back to center. Their next scene is unscripted, but embracing the Core of who they are? Is the only way to get to their happily ever after.
