I thought I could leave my dark past behind. Then I met her. Pure, innocent, and untouched, she's everything I never knew I wanted. Everything I never deserved. When those scumbags snatch her away from me, all bets are off. They’re planning to sell her. I thought I was done with this life. The killing, the bloodshed, the darkness. But I have no choice. Her kidnappers don’t know who I am, or the lives I’ve taken. Soon they’ll learn. I’ll use every last one of my illicit skills to outsmart them. I'll stop at nothing to rescue her, even if it means going up against the most dangerous criminals in the world. Once I have her back in my arms, I'll have to fight another battle - to make her see that I'm not the monster I used to be, and that I'm the only man who can keep her safe.
