To the outside world, Kray Brooks had it all growing up. Wealth. The devoting parents. The beautiful girlfriend. Good grades. All of it a lie, except her. The woman he left behind 13 years ago to try and achieve his real dream: to become a musician. Life doesn't always go according to the plan you set out for yourself. Sometimes, you drift. Become lost, lose hope, and crash. For 13 years he's been drifting wherever his guitar takes him, avoiding his past.

I faked my way long enough by keeping my mouth shut, painting a fake smile on my face, and focusing hard on my job. I quit going out to find that random piece of ass. Not one of them would stand up to her, anyway. She hates me, loathes me even. Little does Vivian Shepard know I’ve got more tricks up my sleeve than she will ever begin to imagine to get her to change her mind, to get my chance. I’m not giving up. I want her, and by God, I’ll fight as dirty as I can get to have her. No matter what!

For years, I pretended to be something I’m not. Drowning the beast living inside of me in copious amounts of alcohol and women. Not that I complained. And then Victoria Hughes walks back into my life and took me by surprise. The woman stunning me clear out of my mind the minute my mouth touched hers. After tragedy strikes and knocks her off her feet, I expected her to come to me, yet she didn’t. She pretended we’re nothing. But I see her. I’ve watched her, and she’s fighting grief while battling an all-consuming need for vengeance.
