The Home He Chose (Rosebrick Row Hearts, #3)

Asha Bennett has seventeen days to keep Rosebrick Row out of a developer's hands. The last man she expects to help is Damon Vale, her late best friend's brother, the demolition contractor whose crew arrives with a false list of supposedly empty buildings.

Damon stops the machines before they touch the Row, but choosing Asha's community puts his company, his crew, and the stable life he built for his eight-year-old daughter at risk. Working beside Asha also forces him to face the years of silence between them, the desire they buried long ago, and the choices that hurt Zoe after grief pulled their family apart.

As they restore a beloved beauty shop and race toward Rosebrick Homecoming, attraction becomes commitment. Trust is harder. Damon still hides danger in the name of protection, and Asha still turns care into plans made for other people.

Saving the Row will require both of them to surrender control, tell the whole truth, and choose partnership where everyone can see it. The Home He Chose is a steamy best-friend's-brother Black romance featuring a confident plus-size heroine, a devoted single father, found family, accountable love, and a hard-earned happily ever after.
