After 5 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798995864509)

Imani Cross built a life that doesn't require anyone.

As a high-level strategist, she's known for her precision, her control, and her ability to make impossible decisions without hesitation.

In every room, she leads. In every space, she holds it together.

But when the meetings end and the heels come off... there's no one waiting on the other side of her success.

She's mastered power. She's perfected independence. She's just never learned how to be anything else.

Until she meets a man who doesn't challenge her strength-but quietly refuses to let her hide behind it.

Now, she's faced with a question she's spent her entire life avoiding:

Who is she... when she doesn't have to be in control?

After 5: She Comes Home Different is a powerful, emotionally layered story about identity, vulnerability, and the women who are learning that strength isn't just about holding it all together... it's about knowing when to finally let go.
