At twenty-two, Solai Washington is carrying more than just the weight of her unborn child-she's carrying the burden of survival. Fleeing a violent past with her abusive boyfriend Jordan Smith, she leaves everything behind in the dead of night: her phone, her belongings, even her safety net. With nothing but $2,000 in cash and the desperate hope of a fresh start, she takes a bus headed to Texas. Haunted by a childhood of loss-her mother's death and her father's life sentence-Solai is determined to break the cycle and protect her child at all costs. But survival isn't simple when the past has claws, and Jordan isn't a man who lets go easily. When a twist of fate reunites her with Messiah "Khaos" Luviano, her high school crush turned feared Texas drug lord, Solai finds herself caught between danger and safety, fear and desire. Messiah is ruthless to the world, but around Solai, his walls begin to crack. She's the only one who dares to look him in the eye, the only one unafraid of his reputation. As Jordan hunts her down and Messiah's enemies close in, Solai must decide if trusting the most dangerous man she knows could be the only way to save herself-and the baby she's willing to risk everything for.
