There is no such thing as a hero.
If you want justice in this world you make it yourself. That’s why I became a lawyer. I don’t trust anyone, not since the night I saw my mother murdered. But when tattooed, gorgeous Cole Davies saves my life from the very criminals I swore to fight, my armor begins to crumble. He’s dangerous. He has dark secrets. I know I should walk away but I can’t. I want to peel back his layers, see what lies beneath.

But I’m terrified of what I’ll find there.

I’ve been broken for a long time. I had a life once. A future. Then I made a mistake and that future was shattered. Now I live in a world of violence, where everyone is out for themselves and you have to watch your back. I trust no one. Until I meet Olivia. She’s intelligent, beautiful. And dangerous. I should walk away but I can’t. She’s breaking down my walls. But if I let her, I’ll lose her.

I can’t be her hero. No matter how much I want to be.
