"An amazing sequence of imaginatively bizarre sexual adventures punctuated by philosophical and theological digression. Mlle. De Maupin, Lolita, Candy--all pale beside Juliette."--Library Journal

Twenty-three-year-old Hayden "Hades" is the most powerful gang leader in Shadow Grove...but new dangers and new feelings might just threaten her circle of hell.

“I wouldn’t fall. Because the second I did, someone would be there to slit my throat and toss me to the sharks.

After all, it’s what I would do.”

Five years ago, I masterminded the infamous massacre of the Tri-State Timberwolves.

The streets outside the Wolves HQ ran red with the blood of the old guard, and not one of the members loyal to my father was granted mercy.

I let the media twist and distort the story. My new recruits eagerly proved themselves by spreading false news, then covering our tracks. To the general public, the Tri-State Timberwolves were extinct.

But that couldn’t have been further from the truth. We changed, we grew, we evolved; we came out stronger than ever. Now, I live, eat, sleep and breathe Timberwolves. I’ll do anything to keep my empire safe and thriving. To keep the people depending on me safe.

So, what do I do when it’s my own weakness that places us all in danger? When I let sex cloud my judgment, and my people pay the price?

Simple. Kill the distractions.

I’m called Hades for a reason, after all.

About The Book "Falling in love" usually is the exclusive behavior of youthful adventurers dedicated to the purpose of finding "Miss or Mr. Right" and not the behavior of middle-aged, confirmed personalities who have "been there, and done that." Liz Brady and Harry Bergman are single, attractive and independent personalities---definitely established in their life styles. And-they've both "been there, and done that." By chance, they meet in Bermuda while on vacation, and unpredictably, their libidos ignite like uncontrollable wildfires. Harry is ecstatic to regain his faltering manhood and Liz is blithely enjoying a "fling." Ensconced in a vacation paradise and liberated from their secure lives in New York, they feel free to indulge in a passionate and lustful intimacy. Will the lust that connects Liz and Harry bind them in a meaningful relationship when they return to New York and resume their diverse life styles? Can Harry love and commit to one woman? Can Liz love another man as she loved her husband? Empathize with them as they argue, brawl and struggle to relinquish their egos and overcome the challenges of their self-satisfied lives in the hope of realizing a happily-ever-after life together.

Casey speaking, who's calling?" Machiavelli responded, it's Rachel from New York. She continued, "I must assign the Presidential case to Officer Jack Diamond Shuster. He will review all the records, and videos. I'm concerned that if I take the case that it could very well be viewed as a conflict of interest. I know that Jack can handle this one." She smiled and flirted as she looked into Jack's loving eyes. Rachel appeared to drift away from Jack, as if in deep thought. She placed the phone down. Then sat in her black leather comfortable chair behind her desk. Schuster turned as white as a ghost. He took a deep breath as he lit his cherry cigar. Machiavelli did the same. Together they shared a cloud of smoke.
