Acts of Creation - Evergreen Grove, #2

He's living a lie. Dante Ramos: Champion. Ladies' man. Party animal. Women want him, and men either want to be him or put his lights out for sleeping with their girlfriends. It's all an act. Inside, he's so full of self-loathing he's on a fast-track to self-destruction. She's living in the shadows. Meeting Michelle at a support group for assault survivors shows Dante a new world of possibilities. Finally, someone in his life might understand him, and she creates in him a fierce need to protect.
Trouble is, Dante lives his life in the spotlight, and the only thing Michelle wants is a quiet place to hide.
