Southern California is in the middle of a heatwave but that doesn’t hold a candle to Arizona in the middle of the summer.

Austin Miller, the enforcer for Southern California’s crime boss, takes over after his boss and mentor dies. He’s set on revenge against the people responsible for Victor’s death and he’ll stop at nothing to get what he wants.

Melina Fernandez has never wanted anything to do with her brother’s criminal organization and has nothing to do with the hit he ordered on Southern California’s leader. She’s caught in the middle of a deadly game and her brother plans to sell her to the highest bidder as soon as possible.

When Melina is kidnapped by Austin, her worst nightmares are realized. It’s not her body he wants, it’s her flesh and her sanity. Trapped in a dark basement for days she decides to unravel her life story while Austin works on mutilating her skin with a tattoo machine.

When Moon, the crime lord of Arizona steps into help, Melina might find her salvation. The clock is ticking and her brother now wants her dead. Austin isn’t a man for games but he does want Melina at any cost, even his life.

I point the flashlight down to the floor and run it along the wall. She follows the light while I speak in a lazy tone. “I know exactly who you are, Melina Maria Fernandez.” I squat down so we’re almost eye to eye and continue running the light around the room until it comes to a medical bed complete with restraints. A very slight whimper escapes her, but she cuts it off. The sound sends a thrill into my cold, dead heart.

“We’re going to become almost…intimate,” I tell her. “First we’re removing your clothes.” I move the flashlight back to her face. She shakes her head in denial and I see the first crack in her strong-girl performance. “Remove everything like a good little girl and you may keep the blanket.” I stare long and hard with unforgiving eyes that I know work to my advantage. “If you make me do the work, you’ll have nothing.” I pull scissors from my back pocket. She’ll need to cut the shorts off. The basement is cool, not cold, but definitely not warm enough to be naked with nothing but a cold cement floor for a bed.
