Torque — Skye Callahan

How will Colt and Aubrey handle Devlin's newest threat?



In the dark underworld of Ashville, crime, deceit, and blackmail reign supreme. Everyone wants that little piece of leverage -- that one small key to getting ahead.



Aubrey would be happy -- and lucky -- to simply make it out alive. After falling in debt to one of the city's most dangerous men, she found herself caught in a dispute between two brothers who will do anything to see each other suffer. Aubrey knows she's only a pawn in their game and her only hope is to find some key of her own -- a way to guarantee her own safety and the safety of her family.



Colt has a long and sordid past with the criminal element. He knows how the game is played and has found himself on all sides more times than he cares to remember. Aubrey is his newest escape route, but their tentative alliance is doomed to crumble if Colt can't find a way to fulfill his end of the bargain with Devlin.
