Publisher's Synopsis
No matter how hard she runs . . .
Gia Corey's on a first-name-basis with danger. Nothing can protect her from the madman stalking her every move. Not her vital role in New York's most powerful cartel, her money or her influence. She can't run from the cops coming to arrest her for the deaths of six people. She can't hide from the past that thrusts her into the path of a madman, sets her up for murder, and threatens those she loves.
Noah McLean's carefree lifestyle as a playboy has come to a swift and violent end. Betrayal is the bullet that forces him to take his place in the family business. Gia's his anchor, holding him together, helping him accept the role he's been burdened with. He fell in lust with her beauty and helplessly in love with her heart, but when danger slithers close, he risks everything to keep her safe. But she only trusts two people and Noah isn't one of them.
The past is never far behind . . .
The monster will stop at nothing to have Gia. He'll wage a dangerous battle where murder, extortion, and terror are his instruments to tear her way from Noah and her friends. To win the war, Gia must do the unthinkable -- embrace her own inner darkness.
Will she slay the monster, once and for all, or will her past break her in the end?
