Sometimes love is the only weapon against unspeakable evil.

Lavinia -- I thought love was my salvation, until my Prince Charming turned out to be not so princely. Then my pregnancy only made my relationship with Tyler spiral into an even worse nightmare. Trapped in a cycle of pain and fear, I worry there's no escape. Until Cotton rides into my life. He sees through my pain and vows to keep me safe. But Tyler isn't finished with me, and this time there's more at stake. Escaping may cost me everything. Maybe even my life.

Cotton -- I've seen my share of darkness, but the cruelty Lavinia has endured is heartbreaking. I know I'm too old for her, but I'm all she's got. Whatever it takes, I have to keep her from Tyler. Even if it means making her mine. I promised her protection, gave her nights full of passion... but when danger strikes, my promise is broken. I'll get her back, even if it means sending Tyler straight to hell. Because Lavinia is mine, and I won't stop until she's back in my arms.

Embark on this thrilling, emotional ride and see if love can conquer all.
