Publisher's Summary

Affairs of the heart can be lethal in this sensual, action packed novel from New York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey.

As a low-level enforcer in Los Angeles, Ken Swift knows danger, but nowhere does he feel it more than in his tangled romances. Divorced from one woman, in love with another, and wrestling with a strong desire to get to know a third, his life is far from perfect, and it becomes all the more complicated when his troubled daughter resurfaces on the same day as a major job. Margaux is pregnant, bitter, and desperate: she needs $50,000 immediately, and she isn't above blackmailing Ken to get it. Yet even as the tension-filled father/daughter reunion escalates into a clashing of wills and desires that spread far beyond their family, Ken's latest contract spirals quickly out of control, and he finds it is not only his daughter looking to seek revenge.

With the strong characters, heart-pounding action, and intense passion he is known for, New York Times bestseller Eric Jerome Dickey lays bare a tale of lust and angst that will leave readers breathless.

What the critics say

“Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction comes to mind as Swift and Ellis cruise through Los Angeles’s wealthy neighborhoods debating issues of racism, inner-city poverty, and the lingering effects of slavery....Suspense builds with an action-packed finale, and Dickey’s many fans will eagerly consume this.”—Library Journal

“Dickey sets in motion a fascinating cast of characters and creates compelling arcs for their stories....Readers will be cheering for the kindhearted Ken and his family in this dark yet ultimately hopeful novel.”—Booklist

“Perennial New York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey has done it again.”—Essence

Amazing book!

Eric Jerome Dickey has done it once again! Love his books and this one is no exception!
However, I was not a huge fan of the reader himself

Not Eric Jerome's usual

I've been a fan of his work for decades and even when he branched off and did Gideon I was cool with that. However this particular book the first few pages were more political and more of the n-word then any rap song I've ever heard. it went back to his usual but truthfully I was a little disappointed with the story. I am looking forward to see where the prequel takes you.
