It's been five years since I've seen her. Five years since Gabriella James damn near destroyed me with her betrayal, sending me to hell in a cage.
I've crawled free, escaped the mob, opened a night club, and continue to battle my demons through underground fighting and sex. But now Gabriella's back, begging for absolution, wanting my forgiveness. All I want is what she's denied me for all these years-her body.
Sex. That's all we'll ever have. Because Gabriella is still keeping secrets. I see it in her eyes.
I don't trust her, and I'll never forgive her betrayal.
But that won't stop me from taking her.
Over . . . and over . . . and over . . .
