As the leader of the Taylor Gang, Soul Taylor’s only concerns are his family, his money, and eliminating anyone who threatens his way of life. Love was never on the table for him, but life has a way of throwing curveballs when you least expect them. A one-night stand with a beautiful “stranger” turns into a love story that he never saw coming. She shows how intoxicating love can be when you lay it all on the line and allow someone to know the real you. Everything seemed to be coming together for him, until the answers to a recent robbery led him to an unexpected place.
When Neeya Carter meets Soul Taylor, his love is everything she never thought was possible. Coming from a loveless family, Neeya finds it hard to trust that it’s safe to let her guard down, but the smooth-talking menace leaves her no choice. Neeya knows all too well how a dysfunctional family can be, but when her father makes a deadly gamble with the wrong people, she’s left scrambling to find a way to save the ones she loves. Desperate for money, she takes on an “easy lick” that proves to be far more dangerous than she ever imagined. Guilt and fear have her looking over her shoulders, but what she doesn’t realize is that the person she’s running from is right in front of her face.
Uncovered secrets threaten to crumble the very foundation Soul and Neeya have worked so hard to build, and when tragedy strikes, the two of them find themselves picking up the pieces of their broken hearts. When it comes to love, there are no rules and no blueprint. You may not always get it right the first time or even the second, but when it’s real, it’s powerful enough to rebuild in even the darkest of places. Will Soul and Neeya’s love be able to withstand the test of time, or will the damage from their past become too much to repair?
