Note: This book has some serious content in it. I will always mark pages where there is some serious content, and I will either make a special marking or tell you in the beginning of the chapter. The series that I'm writing, especially this first work, is recommended for mature audiences, but I will not mark it as mature, because I want to make sure everyone of all audiences can read my stories because it is a very good story line I will say so myself. Please, read with discretion.
A criminal mastermind makes a bold move against a wealthy client to put himself in a position to retire in comfort. He has no idea what he's up against when a young widow, desperate to make ends meet, sets her eyes on earning the bounty set on his head.
