If You Go

Surry O'Brien swore she'd never love again-not after Gavin, not after the scars he carved into her body and the control he stole from her life. She rebuilt herself from the ruins, surrounding her days with humor, friendship, ink, and the fragile promise of safety. But ghosts don't stay buried, and when threats begin arriving in smoke, blood, and broken glass, her past claws its way back, hungrier than ever.
Brenden Slater never expected her. He and his brothers built an empire that doubles as a covert justice network, cleaning up the kind of chaos the law won't touch. He's a man forged from quiet discipline and brutal loyalty-a protector who doesn't break. Yet one night with Surry breaks every rule he ever swore to follow. She's fierce, soft, and scarred in ways that wake something primal inside him.
When the Irish and Russian mafias collide around her, Brenden becomes the only barrier between Surry and the monster determined to reclaim her. Gavin wants his "wife" back, and he'll burn cities to do it. As danger escalates, Brenden's brothers close ranks, forming the found-family Surry never knew she needed. Secrets unravel, alliances fracture, and Surry's strength-long buried under fear-begins to rise.
If she wants a future, she must face the nightmare that shaped her. And if Brenden wants to keep her alive, he'll risk everything-his brothers, his freedom, even his soul.
If You Go is a dark romance where trauma meets healing, where loyalty is sharper than knives, and where a love fierce enough to burn just might be the one thing that saves them both.
