There is an uprising within The Family. They do not like young men taking over, and it's up to Tonio, Donnie, Luiz, and Jake to take out the problems. But Tonio can't pay proper attention to his new duties because his memories haunt him. He grew up in The Family with a secret he hasn't even told his friends. His father would beat and torture him if he didn't go down to the basement, and what Tonio had to do there turned him into a monster.
Zara is trapped. Her father died and left her with a debt she can't pay, and she hates her life. When Tonio saves her from being raped and killed, Zara knows she has to help him. No matter how hard he tries, Tonio can't keep the infuriating little virgin from getting under his skin -- but he won't give in to his feelings for her. Tonio thought he loved a woman once, but it turned out to be a lie, and he'll never trust himself again.
However, what will happen when he does fall for her? Will Zara stay with the man who saved her, or will she run when she sees the monster lurking within?
