Down & Dirty

2018

A small town can hide many secrets. It can also expose every secret you have. I’ve spent almost my entire life in Cypress Creek. My family was once a pillar of the community, but times have changed – for the worse. One look at Marie Nix, and I’m determined to have her. She’s everything I want and then some. She may be too pure for me, but I can’t help myself. Unfortunately, like me and our small town, she has skeletons in her closet. Her past isn’t staying in the shadows. Regardless of the things she’s done, once I have a taste of life with her, all I want is more. Even if it puts me face to face with the threats surrounding her, I’ll do whatever I have to in order to make her mine.
