Kingpin’s Promise by A.G. Henderson

“I’m coming for you.”
Those were Hawk Mason’s last words to me before he was led away in handcuffs.
They could’ve been comforting; I knew they weren’t meant that way.
After all, I was the reason for his arrest.
Now, my three-year reprieve is at an end.
His release means I have to face the facts.
Fact one: He has every reason to hate me.
Fact two: He doesn’t know the meaning of the word mercy.
Fact three: I’ve been in love with him since we spent a perfect and forbidden month together.
The cop and the kingpin.
We never would’ve worked.
I just need my heart to remember that long enough to survive his promise.
