I should have known better than to play with fire... I’d been burned by Theo Cirillo enough to know that I should have seen this coming. He loved to show me his merciless side, but I couldn’t stay away from the deviant even if I wanted to. A prisoner of my own making, playing a game without knowing all the rules. Until the lies he’d been telling, the secrets he’d been keeping began to unravel around us. He’s the only person I trusted with the truth about my past, but my confession was all for nothing. He never cared. He already knew. He was only manipulating me. Using me. I was nothing more than a job. A nut he had to crack. And he split me right open, but he’s about to get a shock because I’m not the kind of girl to roll over and take it. I’m Emmie Ramsey. And I’m about to make him pay for ever trying to play me.
