Their attraction was poison and pleasure, but in the shadows of New Orleans...neither will resist going down in flames.

I bow to no man.

The words are tattooed on my skin, just as they're branded on my heart.

But I never planned for Sergeant Lincoln Asher, a man as deceptive as he is cold. His dominance sets my teeth on edge . . . and my body on fire. He won't stop until I'm his, but I'm not his to take.

My secrets bind me-and blind me. I live in the shadows of New Orleans. Hidden and protected in the underworld I call home. I know who I am.

I vow never to kneel before a man... Save one.

And he will be my downfall.
