Remi Tanner wasn’t part of the plan. But when I see my uncle doting on her, I know she’s going to help me destroy him.
I’ll taunt her.
Test her.
In the end, I’ll break her.
Ace Jagger wasn’t a good guy. But he swept into my life like a storm, and I’m caught up in the aftermath.
He’s cruel.
Calculating.
In the end, I never stood a chance.
She might be a Sterling Prep princess, and I might be the guy from the wrong side of the tracks, but one thing's for sure... I won’t stop until I get what I want.
Revenge.

Excerpt
“Princess, you’ve gone awfully quiet over there.” I sense Ace watching me. “Did he do something, Remi?”
Anger laces his words, soothing something inside of me. Ace cares. Whether or not he’s willing to admit it, I know he does. But like me, he hasn’t had a typical upbringing. The people he was supposed to be able to count on, to teach him about love and family and forgiveness, let him down.
And now we’re here.
Two lost souls bound together by stolen touches and toxic kisses.
“Tell me about you,” I say, changing the subject. I’ve already said too much about mom’s ex. I don’t want him to come between any more than he already is.
“There isn’t much to say,” Ace grunts. “Dad died when we were young. Mom tried, and failed, to hold it together, and I had to grow up fast to take care of my brothers.”
“And that guy, Donny? How did that happen?”
“The Heights is a jungle, Princess. If you’re weak, you get preyed on. And if you’re strong, you have to prove your worth. Lucky for me, I was always strong and I had something to fight for.”
“Your brothers?”
I feel him nod. “It’s why I’m here, for them...” Ace hesitates. “They deserve a chance at something better. Conner is smart, he could do anything he puts his mind to, and Cole has a real shot at football.”
“And you?” I lean up to look at him. “What do you deserve, Ace?”
He looks at me and says ten little words that make my heart ache. “There’s only one place I’m going, Princess. Straight to Hell.”
