Most of the dancers at the club have their eyes on her, but India is only interested in Ricky Johnson.

Unfortunately for India, Ricky harbors a deep, dark secret that could ruin her stability, as well as her position at the club. India will soon learn why everyone warned her to keep her distance. This lust-driven relationship will set the stage for an explosive ending that readers will never see coming. In this business, you should always expect the unexpected.
