I'm a mafia princess running from our rival family. A mafia lawyer in protective custody hiding in the wilds of the Pacific Northwest saves me and doesn't realize it.
If we don't work together, we'll share a watery grave.
I'm Stephenie Rossi and I'm involved in a deal gone bad. In a desperate attempt to escape the repercussions of my actions, I ditch my car and flee into the woods. I need to hide information on an informant – me – but I might not make it through the night.
Carter Johnson is promised safety and peace, but only if he reports on the illegal activities of his clients in Seattle. With only three weeks left until he's set to testify, Carter is sure they're after him. When I show up in his woods, Carter takes it as a sign that he has to run. Now.
When Carter finds out I'm a key to the investigation and could exonerate him, he has to decide between doing what is right and/or staying safe. Only one will of his choices will save me. But I can't guarantee that Carter feels the same way about me that I do him. I've fallen for him and if I don't play this right, one wrong step could shatter my heart.
Be careful, Stephenie Rossi, this is one game you're not equipped to win.
