Tiara Flores:

Love was not kind to her. Life has not been fair to her. Trust? doesn't not come easily to her. All she has now is hope. Hope for a life away from everyone and everything she has ever known. So she ran. She thought she could stay away from trouble until she met him. But she was determined to shield herself from from this new turn of life events. She fought him and she knew she was not going to lose. 

Eugene Kozlovsky: 

He is not fueled by emotions. Love for him is betrayal and weakness. He plays mind games with others. Trust? It is not there in his vocabulary. Revenge was the only thing that mattered to him until the day he met her. He wanted her. For her body. But things changed and her body was not the only thing he wanted. He fought her and he knew he was not going to lose.


-----------------------------------------------------------------

I wouldn't recommend this book to young and sensitive readers as it contains lot of swearing , mature contents , physical abuse and violence.
