What's worse than losing the only family that you've ever had?

Finding yourself in the crosshairs of the Irish Mob.

Declan
As the eldest son in a traditional Irish family, Declan O'Brien understood responsibility more than most. Not only did he have four younger brothers, but he was also the head of the O'Brien Crime Syndicate, a position that he'd taken over from his father at a very young age. Though reputed to be reasonable and methodical, only a fool would mistake him for being anything other than ruthless.

Comfortable in the life that he's carved out for himself, Declan has little to complain about, though his mother would disagree since he's still unmarried. However, with the kind of life that he leads, a wife is the least of his concerns. Of course, that all changes when a couple of his men wind up dead, and the truth is just too farfetched to imagine, much less deal with.

Keavy
As the only child of a man that'd been too pure for this world, Keavy Collins understood loyalty and unconditional love more than most people ever could. Though people would call her upbringing unconventional and even a bit strange, she wouldn't change her childhood for anything in the world. After all, she wouldn't be the person that she was today if not for that unconventional upbringing.

Comfortable in the life that she lives, Keavy isn't bothered by her solitary existence or the fact that she lives alone and has no real friends. Unlike most people, solitude brought a certain level of peace to her life, and she also wasn't the type of person that was afraid to be alone. Of course, that all changes when the wrong man asks her to go home with him and she says yes.

When you realize that some secrets can be deadly.
Once Declan finds out who is responsible for the new mayhem in his life, nothing stops him from learning all that he can about Keavy Collins. Though everything about her is a bad idea, she's like a puzzle that needs to be figured out, especially as more bodies start piling up.

Once Keavy realizes that there's no escaping the enemy, she's left with little choice but to go up against Declan O'Brien with everything that she has. Though she knows exactly who he is and what he's capable of, she'd been raised to fear no man, including the boss of the Irish Mob.

As Declan does his best to keep Keavy from killing him, and while Keavy does her best to keep Declan from capturing her, there's another enemy in the wind, and the stakes are raised when no one is sure who the intended target is anymore.
