Still Addicted to You - An Edgy...

Porscha Sterling

Some say the opposite of love is hate. Others say it's indifference. For Sage McMillian, the opposite of love is revenge. 
 
A loveless marriage was not on the list of things Sage McMillian ever thought she would fight for. But now she's questioning the life she built with Dom "Ink" Richardson, the former street king for whom she risked everything, her privileged life as the heir to an empire, her reputation, and her heart. 
In Sage's weakest moment, another man, Malik, comes on the scene, bringing renewed hopes of romance and adventure. It feels like the love of a lifetime, and Sage finds herself falling for him. Even when Ink grows suspicious, she can't stop herself. And then it's too late. By the time Sage realizes Malik isn't the man she thought he was, she's lost her family and Ink has moved on. 
However, Sage is not accustomed to "letting go." And she doesn't intend to start now. In fact, quite the opposite. Fueled by the revenge building in her broken heart, Sage sets her sights on getting back everything that was taken away from her and annihilating anything--and anyone--standing in her way.
