Some people say that life won't give you more than you can handle...but those people are liars. My life has never been easy. I've had my fair share of pain-every moment is a fight to survive. With my brother on his deathbed, it's up to me to provide and protect what's left of my broken family. I do things I never thought I'd be capable of, becoming a person so hardened to the world that when I look in the mirror, all I see is a stranger. When a twist of fate lands me at rock bottom, I make the ultimate decision and give away the only thing I have left-my freedom. I belong to them now¦the Beast. The Brains. The Bastard. The Dixen's have their secrets, but they aren't the only ones hiding something. When the truth finally emerges, our worlds will collide in a potent mixture of sex, drugs, and bloodshed. Either we will fall under the weight of our deception or it will make us untouchable-bound irrevocably to each other. Sometimes you have to trust the gangsters. Sometimes it takes a gun to stay alive. And sometimes, it takes both. Gangsters and Guns is a stand-alone romance novel with explicit scenes and some dark themes, including drug abuse.
