His mother made me promise to make sure sweet little Eli never grew up in the underworld. She wanted more for him — everything that he could never have in the mafia's shadow.
I never thought a reckless messed-up rentboy like me could take care of a kid… but for Eli's sake, I'll give it a shot.
Even if it means facing the relentless mafia enforcer, Ryker.
He's a force of nature, determined to hunt me down and drag us back into the darkness. But as we dance the dance of predator and prey, lines blur.
I never expected that Ryker would be the one to truly see the pain that haunts me.
And I never expected Ryker to protect me.
The closer we get, the harder it becomes to distinguish friend from foe.
I need to save Eli.
But who will save me?
