She was a shy little virgin, looking to rebel. I was a bad accident waiting to happen.

I’m the bad boy your parents warn you about. I’ve been to prison, killed for someone I love, and now I’m suffering through college.

Then I see her … sweet, so naïve it hurts, and of course beautiful. She’s scared of me the moment we lock eyes, but beneath that fear is curiosity.

From that moment on I’m consumed with a need to make her mine, to claim her … but when my past collides with my future, will I risk the chance of going back to prison to protect yet another person I love?
