When an opportunity arises for her to get enough money to leave home and start her own life, she jumps at it...even though it means she'll have to risk her life by robbing Chi and Sin, two up and coming players in the dope game. But when Chi discovers her in the middle of the robbery gone wrong, her entire life changes. Chi, the wild child...the craziest of the Savage twins, is a strong believer of the motto 'live fast, die young'. His flashy style gave him the name Chicago, but his savage personality won over Juicy's heart. But although Chi knows that Juicy is a woman like none other he's met, he can't let go of his past ways. Chance, Chi's ex, is one part of his past that he can't be without but he also can't stop the fast living, party lifestyle that he loves more than life itself. Will his unwillingness to calm down cost him more than he really wants to give? Sin is the quiet, more reserved twin. The oldest of the two, Sin has no problem playing the background and letting Chi do his thing. But Sin has a real issue when it comes to Chi's treatment of Juicy. With Chi jumping in and out of Juicy's life, it often leaves Sin as the one that she turns to when she needs someone she can trust. But when their relationship makes a turn into a direction that neither one of them suspected, no one is prepared for the outcome. What will happen when Juicy is forced to choose?

Book Description

"Savage Love marks the long-awaited return of one of Canada's most lauded and stylistically brilliant authors. Glover skewers every conventional notion we've ever held about that cultural-emotional institution of love we are instructed to hold dear. Peopled with forensic archaeologists, horoscope writers, dental hygienists, and even butchers, Glover's stories are of our time yet timeless; spectacular fables that stand in any era, any civilization. Whether writing about sexually ambiguous librarians or desperadoes most despicable, Glover exposes the humanity lurking behind our masks, the perversities that underlie our actions. Savage Love heralds the return of a master, with laugh-out-loud stories of the best kind, often completely unexpected, rife with moments of tragedy or horror. This is Douglas Glover country, and we are all willing visitors."--publisher's description.
