Getting His Game Back

Meer over het boek

A sexy, charming debut romance about a man striving for perfection and a woman ready to break her rules for him. Khalil Sarda is on the mend after a tough year, determined to keep his past behind him. He believes real men don’t admit to struggles like depression or therapy. Focused on his growing barbershops and his beloved Detroit community, he aims to reclaim his reputation as a ladies' man—until he meets Vanessa. Vanessa Noble is a driven Black woman building a multimillion-dollar STEM career before thirty. Distracted by a past breakup, she’s convinced that finding a man who meets her high standards is impossible. When she visits Khalil's barbershop, the Original Fade, he challenges her perceptions. Khalil is charming, intelligent, and seems like a great catch—but he’s not Black. Though Vanessa considers breaking her rules for Khalil, he remains frustratingly closed off. As old patterns resurface, Khalil's fear of losing Vanessa might ultimately drive her away. This story explores the complexities of love, identity, and the courage to embrace vulnerability.
