“Isabella is the future of the Outpost. Living in the Outpost was all she knew. The Outpost is a cult made up of a group of brainwashed people ruled by Gaius, but to Isabella, it was more than a home. That is, until a chain of events culminated in her escape. If only fate hadn't been so mean as to take her away from one monster and drop her right into the path of another monster. With renewed vigor, Isabella now ventures beyond the Outpost and discovers the hard way that trust is a lethal and devastating weapon. After meeting Matteo Blaze, a Mafia don, trying to lead a normal life while starting college turns out to be difficult. Matteo was everything Isabella was supposed to flee from, but when she saw Matteo's tattooed body, it was irresistible for her. What begins as pure infatuation develops into a perverse tale of betrayal.”
