After her parents get sent to jail for missapropiation of funds Faith spends her last summer before college hiding in the countryside splitting her time between playing fronton tennis and indulging in the self destructive habit of googling herself. 

On her last visit before she has to leave for college her father gives her a cryptic "Trust the lions" and prohibits her from ever visiting him again. Her mother refuses to elaborate. She leaves for college the butt of half the nation's jokes, friendless and basically parentless. That trully should be enough. 

Things get a whole different difficult when her father is murdered in jail, her mother gets relocated to a high security prison with no visits allowed, one of her teachers seems intent in sexually harrasing her, the voley team turns out to be everything she ever waned in a friendship and also a bit like she joined a girl gang, the cute and smug bastard she met in the bus is apparently the son of one of the biggest cocaine dealers in the world, the whole university seems to have been founded by her family  and The Lions are apparently mob kids. 

Thanks mom and dad, freshman year of college totally wasn't hard enough by itself.

4 parts Complete Mature
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?
