Nate: Seeing Sunshine Simmons for the first time was shattering to my ego. It was like popping open an icy cold Coke on a hot summer’s day. My body had chilled at the same time that it ignited, all for her. I’d never had my fill of the pretty girl back then when she’d left me. Her return to small-town Alabama didn’t go unnoticed, and I’d do whatever I could to get her to leave again. Sunshine: The moment he takes his clothes off on stage, it hits me. Washboard abs, toned pecs...belong to Nathanial Owens, my ex-best friend.

Chyna: Every chance I get, I go to watch the local fights. I crave the excitement and the rush as it courses through my body, with the sounds of fists meeting flesh. It’s not just the blood or the hard bodies that keeps me coming back each time, wanting more. It’s Jace ‘King’ Kash and his arctic blue eyes. He has fists made of steel with a body honed for speed. He’s breathtaking to watch in the cage. The King easily brings men to their knees, and then graciously helps them up when he’s finished. Getting introduced to him was thrilling, falling in love with him, unexpected.

Tyler: Football is life. Growing up, my family loved to cheer me on, and after my parents' accident, I vowed to be the best I could be to honor their memory.

I'm country, through and through. I keep to myself, minding my father's land and take care of my two younger brothers. I like to think of myself as a law-abiding citizen. I mean - what the law doesn't know doesn't hurt, right? My life was simple and neat, until little Miss Shyla showed up one day. The feisty woman was determined to put me in my place, however she was expecting to meet a boy, and not a man.

She’s mine out of convenience, a means to an end. The crew needs her for a vote, but I need her for so much more. It’s time for an uprising, and in mob life, that’s no easy feat. Blood spills, lines are crossed, and betrayal runs deep. No matter if you’re my enemy or my wife, crew always comes first. Yet, I find myself bartering with the devil. He’s a finicky beast, one I can bargain with. Take a life, in place of another. It’s nothing I haven’t done before, and for her, I’d kill them all.

Adam has always been forbidden. As my father's close friend and business partner, there's an unspoken rule he's too old for me. I'm a good girl, never breaking any rules, so I've kept my feelings to myself. However, circumstances change, and the grumpy billionaire I've grown to secretively love doesn't hold back. All it takes is one small incident to make the tension between us snap, and I quickly discover I have a naughty side after all.
