Why Does The Title Say 'This Isn'T Love. It'S A Chokehold.'?

He ruined me once. Four years ago, Roman Ward disappeared without a word, leaving me to pick up the pieces of a night I could never forget. I convinced myself I'd moved on. Then he walked back into my life. Richer. More powerful. More infuriating than ever. Now every meeting feels like a battle. Every glance lasts too long. Every accidental touch reminds me why forgetting him was impossible in the first place. Roman acts like he owns the room. Worse... he acts like he already owns me. Walking away should be easy. So why does every step I take seem to lead me right back into his arms?
