'Pain isn't remotely kind in that way. Pain wants its promised pound of flesh, ounce for ounce. It won't settle until you're left with nothing but a flaky shell of who you were.

Gabby is the daughter of the most powerful drug lord of the south. To say her childhood was different would be an understatement. Despite her father's love and money, all she ever wanted was out. So now she is attending college in West Virgina and is far away from her father and all his dark activities. That is until he gets attacked and they threaten her life. With no idea what they want yet, her father demands her to come home. Not wanting to go back to that life, Gabby refuses. So her father, seeing no other choice, gives her two bodyguards. Louis and Harry are sons of some of her father's connections. Louis is fresh out of the police academy in Austin and Harry was an active and successful underground cage fighter. Posing as college students, Gabby's father has arranged for them to follow her everywhere. They even managed to get the room right beside her. With the impending threat over her head, they couldn't be too careful. Gabby thinks it is ridiculous. Louis isn't so bad. He is talkative and funny. He is even socially acceptable at parties, which helps him blend in and not draw attention to the fact that he doesn't belong. Harry on the other hand is insufferable. He rarely talks, just stares intensely. When he does speak, it is usually in riddles or to criticize Gabby's life style choices. Gabby can't stand him. So why does she end up drawn to him?
