There are no rules in Lawless Land. There’s no one to stop us from taking what we want. All she wants is revenge… and all I want is her.

OZ

From the moment I saw Gemma, I knew she’d be mine.

Her bubblegum pink hair caught my curiosity, but when she opened her sassy, smart mouth, she unknowingly demanded an insatiable craving.

I had to take her…

She awakened the darkness I’ve been hiding.

Gemma provokes a dangerous obsession within me, but she’s consumed by her own thirst for revenge, a need so intense it threatens the stronghold I’ve built in this wasteland.

But she’ll have to let go of that craving.

She’s mine now, and I won’t let her go.

I’ll protect her from the violence beyond our gates, but I can’t protect her from myself… I don’t want to.

GEMMA

I’ve done terrible things for revenge, but I’m far from finished.

The last man I need to end was exiled to Lawless Land—an isolated desert territory ruled by criminals. I became a criminal to follow him. I committed brutal acts to guarantee my own banishment. When I finally get the opportunity to carry out my final act of vengeance, a nameless man on a motorcycle steals me away.

He takes me to his gated compound…

He refuses to let me go.

The only thing I want is the death of the man I came here to end, but this lawless man with the skull tattoo on his hand has other plans for me.

He won’t let me leave.

He insists I’m safer here than wandering Lawless Land.

But I know he’s a liar, and he’s only keeping me from what I came here to do. He claims me with the same possessive passion that broke me once before… I refuse to be broken again.

I never imagined something so twisted and toxic could become my future, but I want it. I want every ounce of their poisonous passion.

I don't believe in evil or enchantments. I know better than to believe in things that don't exist. But I'm certain of the sickness of humanity and the twisted energy it leaves behind…and Sugar Wood Forest is infected with it. My home is infected, too. The preppy college boy and his heiress stepsister I've trapped within it will feel the effects of that soon enough. They said they were lost when they stumbled upon my cabin in the woods, but I'd seen them out there earlier trying to bury their secrets together—the same way I'd buried mine. I should've sent them away, but instead I stole them and locked them up. And now their own wicked energy plagues me, drawing us all together with toxic desire. These two are my secret now. But I haven't decided yet whether they're a secret worth keeping or burying.
