His name is Beat, and I should hate him.
Bound, blindfolded and bruised, I'm tied in his basement, waiting for the men who stripped me from clothes and humanity to collect his debt to them. Me.
His name is Nate and I should hate him, but I don't.
I'm not supposed to know his real name, even worse, I'm not supposed to care. He is nothing to me but means to an end. The plan is simple: break free, collect the pieces of my broken soul, kill the bastards and run away.
His name is Nathaniel Thomas Vela, and I've never seen his face, though I hear that it's beautiful.
Behind the rugged and handsome exterior, there's a quiet murderer, a killer who thinks guns are for pussies and ends people with his bare hands.
His name doesn't matter, neither does his face, but what does matter is my heart. And right now, sadly, it's his.

There's a new bad b*tch in town and let me tell you: You do not want to mess with Prescott Burlington-Smyth. I love when my female characters are complete badasses that doesn't take crap from anyone. This author has certainly made two of the most unforgettable characters and love them or hate them, I guarantee you will be rooting for them at the end of this story.

" You're a wild card, he says.
"Does that scare you?
"Not if I'm about to burn down the whole motherfucking table".
Will Prescott finally escape and exact her revenge?
Or will Beat join her and embark on one gun blazing journey.
I freaking loved this story!. Beat and Prescott complimented each other so well and you literally felt their attraction for each on the first page. It was raw and sexy with a touch of primal that makes you want to gasp for air. And if that wasn't enough, Ms.Shen has decided to give us humor when we weren't expecting it which I appreciate.
Just when you think that the story is going to go a certain way, she pulls you back in and throws you for a one hell of a loop. Do not underestimate this book people!! Buckle up and let Beat and Prescott take you on a law breaking journey.
