I've watched her, looked after her, and now I need to protect her.
***
Alek operates, unapologetically, in a dark and violent underworld, where the ruthless determination he exerts there brings him and his long time friends to the top of their game. 

Loyalty is key, and what binds their friendship together.

When Alek comes into Liz's world following a chance meeting she isn't even aware of, his obsession is born, and with it the determination to protect her at all costs from a violent past that will come to threaten them both.  

More alike than they can know, loyalty and determination have driven Liz through a life that should have made her weak and vulnerable, but instead only made her stronger.  Though steamy encounters with Alek cloud her judgement, Liz fights him every step of the way, pushing the skills of his team and his patience to the limit as they approach an inevitable showdown.

Obsession, desire, and revenge drive a tale of dark secrets, and a race against time.
