The contract Kaylee signed demands two years of service before she's able to make another move.

Ich wurde in die besten Kreise Hollywoods hineingeboren und war schon in den Schlagzeilen und im Internet, bevor ich überhaupt laufen konnte.

I've always been a tough North Shore girl. Fighting is in my blood, survival in my DNA. But two years ago, Caden King broke me, and he has proof of it.

Emersyn Sharpe war nicht so, wie ich es erwartet hatte, und gleichzeitig alles, was ich mir je erträumt hatte. Sie war geblieben und hatte alles verändert. Sie hatte die Jungs in ihre Schranken gewiesen. Sie hatte Feuer und Mumm, eine Wildheit, die ich auch gerne hätte.

Das Herz des Ganzen war ein Geheimnis und eine Lüge. Ein Geheimnis, das wir ihr nicht verrieten. Eine Lüge, die wir uns selbst erzählten. Emersyn Sharpe war mehr als nur das Mädchen, über das wir wachten. Emersyn war genau die Frau, die zu uns passte. Das Letzte, was wir hätten tun sollen, war, sie mitzunehmen, und das Schlimmste, was wir getan hatten, war, sie zu behalten, aber sie brauchte uns. Und ich war mir sicher, mehr als einer von uns, mich eingeschlossen, brauchte sie. Das Geheimnis war keines, das wir erzählen sollten … Und die Lüge?

They call me Kayla "The Ruthless" King. The Queen of the North Shore and leader of the Kings' Crew. Because of the sacrifices I've made and the merciless way I run my crew, the North Shore belongs to me. In our town, you can only thrive if you're the worst of the worst.

In the game of predator and prey, sometimes the greatest trap is discovering you no longer want to escape. I've always escaped into gaming when reality became too much.

My name is Grace Degas Black. Years ago, I made a splash during a charity fashion show where an agent discovered me. My work led to the glitzy world of haute couture, perfume ads, and more.

Then one day, she disappeared.

In a town where all that matters is loyalty to your gang, I've been labeled a traitor. A death sentence. I ran away from the North Shore the day I knew I wasn't safe there anymore. I left behind the people I thought were my family: My crew, the Kings. More importantly, I turned my back on the two men who once meant everything to me. The hardest thing I've ever done.

Five years ago, I disappeared from the life I had and built this one. I spend my days and most of my nights on the line, helping my clients achieve their goals.
