Tan Lee (The Legacy of Tan Lee #1)

He spent his life wondering why his brother never came back. He never imagined the answer would one day come looking for him.

At five years old,

Tan Lee

loses everything.

When an ICE raid tears through Little Chinatown, Tan’s teenage half brother hides him behind a wall and makes one promise:

Stay here. I’ll come back for you.

He never does.

Two terrifying days later, hungry and alone, Tan wanders into the street and nearly loses his life—until Officer

Terrence David

stops his car and saves him. What begins as one police officer’s act of compassion becomes something far greater when Terrence and his wife, Eva, eventually adopt Tan and raise him alongside their children in South Central Los Angeles.

Years later, Tan is no longer the frightened boy clutching a stuffed panda. He’s a handsome, respected police officer rising through the ranks toward becoming an elite SWAT leader. He has a family who loves him, a career that gives his life purpose, and almost everything he could want.

Except answers about the family he lost.

Then a domestic-violence call brings

Amari Davenport

into his life.

Beautiful, brilliant, curvy, and determined to reclaim the woman she was before an abusive relationship nearly destroyed her confidence, Amari isn’t looking for another man—especially not a police officer who witnessed one of the worst nights of her life.

But fate isn’t finished with them.

When they unexpectedly meet again, one dinner becomes another. Attraction becomes trust. Trust becomes a passionate love neither can deny. And for the first time, Tan begins imagining forever.

Until one SWAT operation changes everything.

After helping rescue dozens of victims from a sophisticated human-trafficking ring, Tan becomes a national hero. His face is suddenly everywhere.

Including on the television of the one man who recognizes him instantly.

Jin Lee.

The older brother Tan has spent decades searching for is alive.

And he has a devastating secret.

Tan isn’t merely the little brother Jin abandoned all those years ago. He’s the rightful heir to a

$500 million family fortune

—and his return could threaten the criminal empire Jin has built from the shadows.

Now someone is watching Tan’s family.

Someone knows where his parents live.

And before Tan can discover that the brother he remembers as his protector has become his greatest enemy, a violent home invasion will turn his happiest season into a nightmare.

Because Jin Lee has decided there isn’t room for two Lee brothers in his empire.

And to destroy Tan...

he’s going after the man Tan calls Dad.
