Death before dishonor was the only way out—but now Anthony Padmore is paying the price. Incarcerated for his role in the Padmore family’s criminal empire, he’s awaiting trial while the empire he helped build begins to crumble. Behind bars, Anthony faces new enemies and old ghosts, including the nagging question of whether Soldada Andrews, the woman who once set his soul on fire, was the one who sealed his fate.
Meanwhile, Soldada is on the fast track to becoming a legal powerhouse, but success comes at a cost. The case that put Anthony away made her a star, but it also painted a target on her back. As Roland Padmore wages war from the shadows, Soldada must decide whether to stand firm in her convictions or make a deal with the devil to survive.
When an unexpected twist forces Anthony and Soldada back into each other’s orbit, buried feelings resurface, and new dangers emerge. With enemies closing in from all sides, they must make a destroy each other once and for all—or break every rule to fight for something neither thought they could have… a second chance.
This story was great. I highly recommend, the betrayal of a family member, lies others fabricated, and the corruption made this a great read! I wish an epilogue would have wrapped this one up! I wanting to see how they came together once everyone was released and if Anthony made a conversion to Islam. Oh and I figured there should be a baby on the way with all the sex from behind bars with no condoms! Please check this book out!
