The Inside Man by Brittney Sahin

They’ll do anything for a second shot at forever.
When Cole McGregor entered my life, my whole world changed. My new neighbor was older, gorgeous, and the Irish accent had me swooning. And no matter what, he was always there for me, but only as a friend.

The day I walked out of his life without a trace . . . I’d left not as a young girl with a crush but as a woman in love.
I regretted my decision to leave Cole behind, but I never doubted the reason for my choice–the chance to find my brother even if I also found myself caught up in a shadowy world of danger. Now, years later, my path has crossed Cole’s again, and this time, in his home of Dublin. I’ve been through so much since I left New York, and I’m not prepared to share my secrets with anyone, not my brother, and especially not Cole.

With Cole stepping into an influential role in the city, one that comes with significant risk as he tries to take down the corrupt from the inside, I’m not sure if I’ll ever earn redemption or another chance at love. And with each passing moment, I know one thing for certain–the truth always comes out, and once it does, there’ll be no turning back.
