Summary

"After relying on high-priced prostitution as her only source of income, Anissa Burke has finally earned enough money to leave the escort life behind and open her own boutique with her cousin and business partner, Brynn Hollingsworth. But when Brynn is gunned down and left in a coma, Anissa has no choice but to seek the protection of a pimp named Leon... At first, Leon treats Anissa like royalty, but she soon sees what he does to the other escorts who work for him: denying them freedom, dictating when they can eat and where they go, even beating them. When Anissa learns of the darkest pages in Leon's past, she realizes it's just a matter of time before Leon turns on her, too. But it isn't until she discovers the truth about Brynn's attempted murder that Anissa takes action, determined to get her life back and, while she's at it, take Leon down."--Page 4 of cover.
