Xavier Lasher breaks out of prison with one goal: Claim his nurse, Lauren, as his.

Six years ago, I killed my father.

Four years ago, my twin nearly killed himself.

Now, I'm done waiting. I'm done serving time for a man the world doesn't miss.

And I'm done pretending that Lauren isn't mine.

I will have my freedom, and I will have my obsession. The only drug I'll ever need.

But when outside forces threaten to tear us apart, will she come back to me? And do I possess the courage to let my little Angel fly?

I don't know and I'm not eager to find out. So, I'll hold my Angel tight until I can feel her in my bones. Until her heart takes the shape of me.

If anyone tries to tear her from me, then the world better hope it's ready for another Lasher to stalk its streets. I will not lose her.
