While a senior in high school, Sabine Burns suffers a devastating loss when her best friend Kris is deliberately killed by a drug overdose forced on her by her former pimp boyfriend. Since that night ten years ago, the CrossFit instructor and martial arts expert honors the memory of her best friend—after taking a brutal revenge on her killer—by quietly going out a few nights each week to help the sexually-exploited women who toil in the dark, dangerous streets for unscrupulous men.

Casey Christiansen, the MMA and Krav Maga team lead for Armstrong Protection Services, one of the legendary Seven, is stunned when she sees Sabine in action one night. Further filled with compassion when she learns about Sabine’s painful past, she immediately decides this sweet, shy woman is hers to love and protect.

​

When Casey realizes there is a threat to Sabine from the pimps who were humiliated by her one night on the street, she and APS vow to provide all the protection the fitness instructor needs as she does the work so dear to her heart. But when street women start to disappear in retaliation, Sabine must figure out a way to avoid knuckling under to the pimps’ demands, to avoid the fate from which she has tried so hard to save other women. Because if she can’t, but continues to defy them—Casey Christiansen just might be one of the ones who ends up dead.

 

Sexual exploitation. Coerced sex workers. Danger on the streets. And a ray of sunshine that penetrates the dead of night to thwart the malice in the shadows.
