Nobody knew it better how cold his blood ran…or how hot. In one night he'd branded her his forever. Billy had grown up in the dark, mysterious bayou—but was he guilty of killing his estranged wife and his best friend? As his attorney, Shelby was obligated to defend her client. As the innocent who'd given herself to him only to be cast away, she wasn't sure if now she wanted his love or her revenge.
