Publisher's Synopsis
To escape a ruthless gang leader's obsession, a strong-willed Southern stunner is forced to play a deadly game among New Orleans's darkest, most seductive streets.
Obsession is a game two can play-but only one can win . . .
For fiercely independent Sincere Watkins, her stunning beauty is an obstacle to be overcome. Growing up in New Orleans' most dangerous neighborhood, she caught the eye of Lorde, leader of the ruthless local gang, The Saints. Despite Lorde's unstoppable obsession with her, Sincere is making a life for herself. She won't let him stand in her way-even after he takes out someone she cares for. Sincere just focuses on fulfilling her dreams-and holds love at a distance to keep others safe . . .
But when Lorde upends Sincere's world irrevocably, she evades his every merciless move with strength, savvy, and resilience she never knew she had. And their battle of wills becomes all-out war when Lorde's
second-in-command, Supreme, falls hard for Sincere's dignity and determination . . .
Now she will work every angle by igniting long-buried resentments and lethal rivalries among The Saints. For in the Dirty South, where grudges run deep and life is short, power lies in how you seize it. And Sincere will pay any price, rack up any cost to get revenge-and all she deserves. Even if all that's left is heartbreak-and smoking ash . . .
