She was a shy little virgin, looking to rebel. I was a bad accident waiting to happen.

I'm the bad boy your parents warn you about. I've been to prison, killed for someone I love, and now I'm suffering through college.

Then I see her ... sweet, so naïve it hurts, and of course beautiful. She's scared of me the moment we lock eyes, but beneath that fear is curiosity.

From that moment on I'm consumed with a need to make her mine, to claim her ... but when my past collides with my future, will I risk the chance of going back to prison to protect yet another person I love?
