Keona Brooks swore she'd never get caught up with a man from the streets again. Cold, independent, and building her own come-up, she promised herself she'd keep her distance from the chaos, the guns, the trap life that already took too much from her.

But then there's Kai Jones.
The kind of man who makes the hood bow when he steps out. Six-foot-three, tattoos telling stories of blood and loyalty, a voice that commands respect, and eyes that never ask-they take.

Keona knew better.
Kai didn't care.

What starts as tension between a woman who refuses to be owned and a man who doesn't know how to let go spirals into something addictive, messy, and dangerous. Between late-night shootouts, whispered threats, and a passion too raw to tame, Keona finds herself drowning in the very thing she swore she'd never touch again.

In his world, love isn't soft.
It's possession.
It's fire.
And walking away might be the only thing deadlier than staying.
