Against All Odds by Gabi Moore

EVELYN:
It’s a dog eat dog world out there, and I’m the top bitch for a reason.
The mafia’s not the best place for a woman… but I’m not like other women. I know how to get what I want out of every situation.
Jack is young, kind of dumb… but he’ll do in a pinch. After I frame him for poisoning the mafia boss I’ll finally get the chance to run away and start living the life I really deserve.
It’s a shame, since he’s pretty cute, but that’s just how the world works, right?
Looking back at it all now, everything changed the moment that strange new drug shipment came into our lives. I’m a practical woman. Level-headed. Hard-nosed, even. But even I have to admit that things got very strange, very quickly…
I was never the same again after that night we spent together. And it scared me.

JACK:
Being a mafia hitman is not exactly what I wanted to be when I grew up. But that’s just how the world works, right?
Evie was not my type. Not even close. So how did I end up here, in a steel container in a warehouse, feeling things I’d never felt for anyone before?
She was different.
It was strange …and I couldn’t put my finger on why, but I just knew that after that night we spent together, our lives would change forever.
We shared something special.
But she betrayed me…
Now there was only one thing I wanted to do more than get my revenge…
