Never Not Been You (The Chicago Series #5)

Matthew Grayson is used to getting what he wants.
He’s built a life on discipline, control, and a reputation that never fails him. Wealth. Power. Women. Everything comes easily—until the one woman who’s always mattered steps back into his life and reminds him of what he’s already lost.
More than once.
She wants friendship.
No benefits. No complications.
And Matthew Grayson doesn’t do just friends.
Then a devastating call in the middle of the night shatters his world.
Grief turns into responsibility overnight, and suddenly the only things that matter are a kid who needs him… and the woman who shows up without hesitation when he breaks. No questions. No explanations. Just quiet comfort and too much history to pretend they’re nothing.
Matt makes a decision that should fix everything.
Instead, it puts him one mistake away from losing the two people he cares about most.

The best part?
It was his idea.
​​​​​​​
The worst part?
So was falling for her all over again.
