Tatum had done her best to survive. Kicked out of Haven and sent down to downworld, she had been forced to survive in a way that no one should ever have to live. But Tatum was a survivor and she made the most of her life on downworld, becoming the top earner, making enough marks to keep her off her back and away from the males that only want her for her body. That is until she is rejected. She is thrown into a new position in life, surviving like always but fighting in a different way as she finds herself hardened to males and mates. Cast off by her own mate she isn't expecting a sinfully attractive male to set his eyes on her and take no prisoners as he does his best to pull her into his world of decadence and pleasure. Tatum is torn between her soul and her heart and the what ifs that rage in her brain. But she knows very well that life and love are never what they seem and above all that she has been given a choice she had never been given before.
