Prologue

“You don’t catch feelings!” For twenty years, Tuesday had lived by this one unbreakable commandment. From her small strip club in Detroit, she and her team of ex-dancers would target all the local drug dealers. Their M.O.: robbery through seduction. She had been the mastermind behind the successful planning and execution of countless heists. Until she met her match.

During her last mission, she went after the most powerful and reclusive boss in the Midwest: the infamous Sebastian Caine. Tuesday broke her own rule by falling in love with her target and this earned the betrayal of her crew. An attempt was made on her life after they murdered her best friend. Tuesday had to flee Detroit, but not before she got revenge on her former associates.

For three years she had been living in California under the name Tabitha King, married and raising two children with Caine. Like her, Sebastian had also put his old life behind him. The former kingpin now lived as Marcus King and was completely legitimate. The couple owned Abel Incorporated, where Tuesday served as the CEO. A small venture once used to launder Caine’s drug profits had grown to become one of the largest importing companies in America.

Tuesday had come up from the stripper pole to the board room. After years of being in the struggle, she now enjoyed a comfortable life with luxury cars and private jets, all while living in a Beverly Hills mansion with the man of her dreams. Tuesday seemed to have achieved the fairytale ending.

However, when dangerous enemies resurfaced, Tuesday learned that happily ever after only happens in children’s books. She and Sebastian may have changed their names and gone legit, but that didn’t erase their criminal pasts. Being done with The Game doesn’t mean The Game is done with you.
