Her only way to pay it back was to work it off at the hands of Chicago's most devious loan shark, Blake Simmonds. Now she's paid the debt, she wants out, but Blake has other ideas.

Her life is in danger once again when her past catches up with her, Tash must embrace her new existence if she has any chance of surviving.
