Alex
My past is a noose around my neck.
Exiled from my family home for almost ten years, I follow a strict set of rules in order to remain free. But when I set eyes on SJ, my control frays. Is it her sweet Texas twang, those sparkling baby-blues, or that peach of a backside? All of it. She's got me tied up in knots—exactly where I dream about having her. If I give into my fantasy, I could lose everything.
SJ
I should have looked the gift horse in the mouth.
My uncle sent me to Colorado tangled in a web of lies I can't seem to free myself from. He wants to take Alex down and he wants to use me to do it. But I'm not sure Alex is the monster my uncle swears he is. Forced to choose between my family and the man who has quickly become wrapped up in my heart, there's no way I can win.
