We weren't supposed to fall in love... Not with these secrets between us. But when her past and my present collide, I have to choose between breaking her or breaking me.

​​​​​​​ Nick Sobolev is finally a free man.  After wrongfully serving five years behind bars, all Nick wants to do is keep his head down and his nose clean.  But when he meets the mysterious and very beautiful Alexis Cross, he finds himself being drawn back into the life that landed him in prison in the first place. 

​​​​​​​ Alexis Cross is trying hard to escape her father and his influence, but in a city like Detroit, there’s no way to avoid either.  When her past violently collides with her present, it shatters her long-held belief that she’s finally gaining her independence, plunging her into a dangerous game with equally deadly consequences.
