Reina A girl born into a life of criminality, I never had any choice in my life but to adhere to the path my family chose. Independence from my evil roots is out of the options otherwise people won’t hesitate to come after me. Enemies of my family who want revenge for the wrongs they did. But the biggest enemy of all is the Manon family. And I made the mistake of falling in love with one of their brooding boys. The worst thing? He doesn't remember me. Liam Being a Manon was both a blessing and a curse. The biggest curse of all was having a target in my back the moment I learned to utter my first words. Now I only have memories of one great night in a city with a faceless woman I don’t remember loving. And a marriage I don't remember proposing.

Dane She's a sparkplug I had the worst job of all by looking after. I knew the moment I first laid my eyes on her when I was seventeen and her too young to even understand attraction that she would eventually be the death of me. I managed to successfully ignore the feelings I shouldn't have for years. Her, not so much. Not when the walking sex appeal manage to ensnare the men she passed at the simple sashay of her hips. Now she was in my city, out of a job, with a penchant for getting herself in trouble. One thing I know for sure, she was fucking up my plans of being the good guy. Adeleide I'm not in love with Dane Jacobs. Especially because he isn't kind, or stole the room when he entered, or always wanted what was best for the people he cared about even at his expense. No, he's not a good person at all—at least, that's what I want to believe. All it took was a scandal for him to finally notice me. And now that I have his attention, I don't think I want to let go of it. But I can't have him. Because I don't know who my brothers will kill first if I did, me or their best friend.

Levi Vicious. Malevolent. A monster. At least that's the title they gave me. I'm not afraid to take what I want, when I want without thinking twice. That's how I stayed on top of the game in the business industry. No one could touch me. They could try, but they always end up with a severed limb or a decapitated head under the guise of a construction mishap or a drunk driving incident. I will do anything to protect the name I built or myself, even if it meant destroying a certain raven-haired girl who stole from me on what seemed to be the greatest night of my life. Or hiring her to do my dirty work. Either way, she's going to wish she never met me. One thing's for sure, I was going to make her bleed. Robyn Some call me a thief. Some call me a con artist. I call myself a person who is trying to get by even if it meant doing the unthinkable. I made a mistake in choosing a man to con. Because if I had chosen someone else, I wouldn't have met Levi Pavlov. Cruel, vindictive, and a son of a bitch. What peeved me out the most was how much he mirrored my atrocity. The funny thing was, he made it seem . . . normal. That was until fate had other plans. Now, my identity was in jeopardy if I didn't take him up on his offer. I was on the deep end of the pool and the only person who can prevent me from drowning on my crimes was him. And as much as I hate to admit it, I was liking the game we were playing. But what I do know is, only one of us is getting out unscathed.
