From USA Today Bestselling Author Silla Webb comes a tragic Romantic Suspense based on a true crime event.  

My life never held a trace of hope.
Convicted at birth to serve a life sentence of injustice, I fought a battle for happiness that I couldn’t afford.
My world was full of hatred and danger at every turn; I was married to a criminal after all. There was a time when my heart was consumed with the love I felt for Harlan. But one brutal assault made me realize Harlan made my already painful life more difficult.

But there was no escaping him.

When I was offered the opportunity to become a confidential informant for the FBI, I voraciously agreed. It was my only way out of the destitute life that broke me down inside and out.
He would save me. Protect me from the affliction of which I suffered.

Until…

He didn’t.
He made promises he couldn’t keep, and I believed his every word.
Trusting that his protection would be enough when it wasn’t.

Falling in love is supposed to be beautiful … uninhibited.
If I’ve learned anything in my short life, it’s that love is raw and reckless. Once your heart grows weak, love will deliver the final blow and leave you completely shattered.
