James
I‘ve inherited the family business –
Yeah, exactly, that kind. The kind you can’t just walk away from.
So instead, I’m trying to make it legitimate.
When I hop in the car of a complete stranger,
that’s when I realize how much I need to change.
Because in order to keep Allie safe, in order to keep her mine,
I need to rewrite the rules.
But other players in the game don’t agree.
And in my line of work, that doesn’t mean you’re out…
that means you’re dead.
Allie
I can’t believe I picked up a complete stranger at the airport!
In my defense, he didn’t really object.
As I get to know James, and he offers me a job to help
with my impending financial doom,
I thank the universe it was him I picked up.
Because as I spend my days with him,
I realize he’s so much more than his family name.
And as I fall in love with him, I start to think I’m the luckiest girl alive.
But what I should have been thinking
is how can James and I survive in a world
of shady phone calls, cutthroat deals, and looking over our shoulders?
I’m not sure we can.
