She was bold, beautiful, and ready to get in the face of anyone who got in her way. And I couldn’t stay away from her.Maybe it was the fierce, determined look in her hazel eyes or the abundance of graphic tees she wore that declared her mood at any given moment.

The bastards that went after her grandfather came after her. The only problem was, they hadn’t figured out, they’d have to go through me first.
