My life has been simple and can be boiled down to one simple word: survive. All my life, I’ve fought, scratched, and done whatever I needed to do to make money and survive. It took a lot of blood and sweat, but I finally managed to claw my way to the top of the heap, running a successful, profitable, and, yes, sometimes brutal organization.
You can’t be king of the underworld if you’re not willing to shed a little blood and crack a few skulls when needed. Like I said, my life...
My life has been simple and can be boiled down to one simple word: survive. All my life, I’ve fought, scratched, and done whatever I needed to do to make money and survive. It took a lot of blood and sweat, but I finally managed to claw my way to the top of the heap, running a successful, profitable, and, yes, sometimes brutal organization.
You can’t be king of the underworld if you’re not willing to shed a little blood and crack a few skulls when needed. Like I said, my life has been simple. But I’d be lying if I said it was satisfying and fulfilling. Or that it wasn’t lonely at times.
But when chance brings Tabitha into my life, everything starts to change. She turns my entire world on its head, and I start seeing things in a completely different way. It’s uncomfortable as hell but exhilarating at the same time.
Just when I start flirting with the idea of happiness, though, my past rises and threatens to rip it away from me. Threatens to rip her away from me. I find myself in the fight of my life, and if I fuck it up, I’m going to lose not just my shot at happiness forever but maybe Tabitha as well.
Tabitha
My life has been simple. School and a single-minded, laser focus on my career. I don’t have time for relationships or the extracurricular things people my age tend to get up to. While my friends are all out partying, I’m in the library with my nose in a book.
But when two men harass me outside a store one night, it sets off a chain of events I never could have seen coming, for it brings Tyson Harper into my world. A criminal kingpin, he is not the sort of man I’d ordinarily talk to, let alone have any sort of association with. Criminals and bad boys may be a fetish for some, but not for me. At least, not usually. There’s something about him that captures my imagination, something unlike anybody I’ve ever met before.
He captivates me. The more I get to know him, the more I see there is far more to Tyson than meets the eye. And for the first time in my life, I feel a sense of joy I never thought I’d feel. I feel a love I never thought I’d have.
But Tyson’s life is one fraught with danger. I knew it when I met him. It’s a lesson I learn firsthand when I’m thrown into a terrible position that could cost me more than my happiness. It could cost me my life.
This is a short, novella-length steamy, daddy/alpha male romance.
