Twenty-year-old Lauren Miller is a devoted sister, a rebellious daughter, and an outgoing student.

Life has made her hard, forced her to create a thick wall around her.

A perfect way to keep everyone at bay while it hides the broken pieces inside.

One party.

One fatal disaster.

And Lauren's wall threatens to crumble to the ground.

The mafia is out to get her.

The urge to run has never been stronger.

Only this time, she's got one huge problem.

He is six feet two inches of handsomeness, has a moody temperament

and an overbearing attitude, and goes by the name Liam Ressler.

The guy is on a mission.

And the fact is, he never fails.
