***	Ansel Adams, or Ance as those he knows tend to call him, is a bad man though he didn't consider that to be his fault. His father had been a bad man, his grandfather had been a bad man--hell as far as Ance knew he came from a long line of men were just a bitten rotten down at their core. Everyone that knew Ance knew he was a man who would never change, never give up his lifestyle, never settle down....Until Penelope Reynolds came sobbing into his life. 

	Ance hadn't given much thought to offering this rich man protection as he took a load of stolen goods to market until he realized that the banging sound coming from the crate was a tiny little blond with pigtails, freckles and a bad leg. 

	Suddenly he's struck with a choice. Save the girl and return her to her family or simply let life do what life does and chalk it up to bad luck for little Penelope--in the past the latter choice would have been easy, but not now. 

*** Audrey Reynolds had never been so afraid in her life. Her daughter has been stolen. Her daughter is all she has left in the world since the murder of her husband five years earlier.  Desperate to find Penelope, Audrey enlists the help of U.S. Marshall Rodger York who also happens to be the man who's been trying to marry her since the day after her husband had been placed under the ground. 

	They embark on a journey to find Penelope and Rodger has vowed to kill whoever took the girl away. But things go wrong and Audrey learns that the very man she went to for help might be the man responsible for every bad thing that's happened in the last five years...... 

	Will Audrey find a way to survive but more importantly will she ever see her daughter alive again?

18+Explicit sexual scenes. Very graphic scenes of murder, rape, and drug use. Read at your own discretion. Scarlett Daniels grew up in the system after her parents died from a drug overdose when she was ten years old. Once she turned 18 years old, she ran from the state as fast as she could and started living her own life. Except it wasn't a grand life as she had once dreamed of. Her life now consisted of dancing on poles, answering to a man who tried to own her and living with a best friend who ends up murdered in their apartment. Duke Harvey had a decent childhood; his parents were loaded and he had everything he ever wanted. Until he attended college and the only woman he thought he could trust stabbed him in the back and showed up after several weeks of silence, in a body bag. His entire picture on life changed then and he put his rich-boy shoes away and became a homicide detective. He wanted bad men like the one that hurt his only love to pay for their sins. When Scarlett and Duke meet for the first time, sparks fly and clothes come off. And one chance meeting turns into another until her friend ends up murdered and Duke becomes the lead detective. Now Duke must protect Scarlett from the bad guy while protecting her from himself at the same time. But an insatiable lust blossom's between the two that neither expected to happen. Not only does Duke want to save Scarlett from a wicked and toxic life, but he secretly wants to save himself in the process. Love wasn't a word he used in his vocabulary but something about this woman makes him second guess everything he's believed about love until this point. But one question sticks out in his mind over everything else: is he even capable of love?
