He was the last man she thought she could trust...

As the right hand to The Mistress, New York City's most notorious mobster, Charlie learned early on that when the boss points, you shoot-or you'll end up on the wrong end of the bullet. And she has no reservations about doing what it takes to survive. That is, until the cost becomes the blood of the innocent and she's forced to decide: Will she become the monster everyone thinks she is? Or will she throw everything away and try to outrun death?

And that death hunts her in the form of disgraced ex-cop-turned hitman, Everett Daniels.

She was the last woman he thought he'd fall for...

Everett regrets the day he turned to The Mistress for help in locating his missing wife. Now trapped in her service, he will do anything to settle his debt. When Charlie goes on the run, Everett sees a chance at freedom that he can't afford to turn down. Tasked with returning The Mistress's protégé, Everett has everything to gain. But he can't shake the question in his head- why would the heir of a criminal throne leave everything behind? Could it be that Charlie isn't the viper he thought she was? Discovering that answer might cost him everything...
