Lucian Rollins is a lean, mean vengeance-seeking mogul. On a relentless quest to expunge his father's tarnished legacy, he meticulously orchestrates every aspect of his life, constructing an indestructible business empire. With each step he takes towards amassing wealth and power, he feels more secure against the threats that loom over him.
However, his ironclad facade faces its greatest challenge in the form of Sloane Walton, a feisty small-town librarian who haunts his thoughts and disrupts his carefully planned existence.
Sloane Walton is a spitfire, determined to continue her father's mission for justice. She's driven to uncover the truth about Lucian Rollins' involvement in her family's past. Bound by an old, dark secret and their present animosity towards each other, Sloane's trust in Lucian is as thin as a thread.
In an unexpected twist, their relentless bickering leads to steamy encounters that both are unable to regret. What starts as a passionate one-night stand ignites a flame that neither can extinguish. Despite their undeniable chemistry, they find themselves at a standstill. Sloane is ready to embrace a family-filled future, whereas Lucian staunchly refuses to entertain the idea of marriage and children.
Lucian subscribes to a haunting principle: broken men break women. He has witnessed it, he believes it, and he's unwilling to risk it with Sloane. To him, a life of solitude is preferable to endangering her. Yet, forsaking her protection leaves her vulnerable to other dangers.
Making the heart-wrenching decision to cut her out of his life once more, Lucian learns that walking away doesn't erase his feelings, nor does it ensure her safety. Sloane, on the other hand, is resolute. She's not prepared to give Lucian another chance after twice facing his ruthless rejection. The ball is in Lucian’s court, and he knows he must create another opportunity to prove himself worthy of her trust.
Things We Left Behind is a riveting romance that explores the delicate dance between love and self-preservation, revealing that sometimes, the biggest battle we face is with our own hearts.
