Revenge doesn’t aim to wound. It aims to end.

Dave Johnson chooses Valerie Spenser — brilliant, fierce, compassionate Valerie, who trusted him with her truth and found in him the acceptance she’d been denied for so long. For one perfect night, the future feels bright.

Then the threats start.

Elyssa Delgado wants payback, and she knows exactly how to hurt Dave: by targeting the people he loves. When Valerie disappears, Dave races to save her without dragging Rick into the crossfire.

But some traps are sprung long before you see them. And some losses change you forever.

When the dust settles, Dave can’t be comforted. Not even by Rick. Not this time. He walks away to grieve alone — and Rick lets him go, promising he’ll wait.

When love is targeted, no one walks away whole.

His Man Tuesday is the fifth novella in the His Man Series.
