Signed copy of Another Woman's Sins.
 
17 years ago, Mack and I became lovers.
Violent lovers.
And then trauma ripped us apart, and I ran away.
17 years later, after losing everything, I'm living all the way across Canada, and I've left that part of my life behind. I'm finally safe, though I know Mack still lives the life of crime.
I will never see him again, but I will always love him. And I can never forget him.
Because a dark scarred letter M for Mack marks the inside of my right thigh, where he carved it 17 years ago.

I still burn for Lily every single day, although I can never be with her again. She got out, shes living a decent life. And I am not.
I owe my dangerous crime boss a big favor, and it involves abducting a woman Rio used to know, and teaching her a lesson.
It involves roughing her up, carving her up like I used to do to Lily.
17 years later, Lily may be long gone from my life, but at least I'll get a chance to pretend.
