J-2 built the G2 crime family from pain, survival, and the promise that his siblings would never have to beg for safety again. Now he owns the clubs, controls the streets, and makes grown men think twice before saying his name too loud.
He has money, power, enemies, and one weakness he never saw coming.
Melonie Price walks into Jamal’s world looking like peace in a body-hugging dress, but she was sent there with a purpose. A rival syndicate trained her to get close, learn his secrets, and become the one woman capable of bringing G2 to its knees.
The plan should have been simple.
Get in.
Get him hooked.
Get out.
Then J-2 starts touching her like she belongs to him. Protecting her like the whole city can burn behind her. Loving her in ways that make her forget she was ever supposed to betray him.
But secrets have receipts, and Jamal’s enemies are ready to collect.
When the truth comes out, love turns lethal. Melonie has to decide if she’s still the weapon sent to destroy him or the woman willing to risk everything to save him. Jamal has to decide what hurts worse: the betrayal or the fact that he still wants her close.
In his world, love is a liability.
