Xavier may be an ex-con, but he’s strong, protective, and totally sexy.
He’s my hero.
Tillie: At the lowest time in my life, I realize I might have gained my very own guardian angel.
I never saw Xavier as more than a friend, but then he went to prison for me.
I’ll never forget his sacrifice.
He’s the one person I can tell anything, the one person I trust above all else.
He’s also the man I’ve built up in my little fantasy world as being the perfect husband.

Only problem is, I forgot he’s still a killer.
How can I be with a man who’s capable of taking a life?
I’m torn between my growing feelings for him and my fear of what it means to love a man like Xavier.
Xavier: Did I have to kill the man who beat Tillie? No.
But I’m headed to prison anyway, so why not get an added bonus? Tillie defended me to anyone who would listen, but I still never expected she’d be almost religious in coming to see me every Saturday.
I also didn’t expect to fall in love with the beautiful, spirited woman.
Seeing her smile now is worth the extra time I’m spending away from my brothers in Kiss of Death and the comfort of home.
Unfortunately, my little Tillie is a magnet for trouble.
Good thing she has me to protect her, because there is nothing I won’t do for Tillie.
Nothing.
If I have to kill for her again, so be it. Anyone who touches her is dead. May God have mercy, because I won’t.
