When you're trapped between a crooked cop and the leader of a powerful mafia family, sometimes the only way to get yourself out is to dive back in. 

Sadie Sorento thinks she's left the mafia life behind. But when she finds herself in hot water with the police, she is offered a choice: go back to where she came from and spy on Brandon Avenetti, feared mafia leader and her ex-boyfriend, or her brother goes to jail. Returning to her old world of drugs, violence, and a ruthlessly attractive former lover proves more complicated than she'd ever imagined, however, and the passion Sadie and Brandon had both thought was dead in the water proves to be as dangerously intense as the cop hunting them.

Now, Sadie and Brandon will have to play dirty if they're going to take down a man hell-bent on destroying them both; because if they don't, their families, their relationship, and their very lives will be on the line.

Now she will have to live with the debt of temptation - When Poppy witnesses a robbery gone wrong and gives evidence to the police to catch the perpetrators, she finds herself in witness protection after discovering the criminals are part of a dangerous gang. But when her witness protection comes to an end, she is soon captured by the gang leader and told she'll give eight years of her life for the man who was sentenced to prison for the same amount of time. Poppy is forced to work for the spiteful leader, Rexx, who uses her natural beauty to swindle valuable information from wealthy men for his own benefit. She's been counting down the seconds until her freedom. When she stumbles across Gabriel Dalton, the underboss to the mafia, he's charming, attractive and tempting. Poppy expects him to be like the rest, only ever after one thing. But that's when Gabriel proves her wrong. After Rexx discovers her acquaintance with Gabriel, he demands that she spies on him to get information about his family and business. Reluctantly she wants to say no, but she has no choice. If she fights it, she'll get hurt-or worse. As Poppy becomes closer to Gabriel, she doesn't expect to fall for him. And little does he know, she's been lying to him this whole time.
