Skylar Montgomery doesn't want protection. She wants revenge.
Skylar Montgomery's life changes during the winter break of her second year in college when she walks in on a brutal attack on her family by the Kings Organization (KO). Skylar makes it out alive, but not without encountering the organization's leader, Shane Myers, the man who took everything from her and wasn't quite finished yet.
Aaron Campbell is a new detective working on Skylar Montgomery's case, but his history with Shane Myers goes beyond the crime he is investigating. Aaron believes that Shane is responsible for the murder of his father, a well respected detective in the agency who was close to bringing his organization down. Aaron is prepared to do anything to finish the job his father started, but he isn't prepared for all that comes with taking care of Skylar Montgomery.
