Three days ago, I was living a blissfully simple life. I spent my days surfing and painting, barely looking over my shoulder anymore. Now, thanks to a brutal betrayal, I am trapped and broken, maybe beyond repair.

At least before them. 

The Blades. 

Damien, Kai, Ricardo, and Tony saved my life and suddenly I am wrapped in a world of violence, surrounded by four men who awaken something in me I've never experienced before. They don’t treat me like the broken and beaten woman I am, but instead give me somewhere safe to heal and help me take back my own power and control.

I know I shouldn’t want them. This is temporary, after all. But I can’t stop the way my heart races and my body reacts to them. And they feel the same pull. 

But what happens when our safe space is put at risk? 

Will our enemies finally get what they want? Or can we beat them at their own game?

I’m Rhyder fucking O’Shae and I’m done playing the part the world has expected of me. 

It’s time I spread my wings and rise.
