The mafia's last debt
The mafia's last debt
“Jasmine Hart thought her last night at the Red Velvet would finally be the end of a three year debt. She thought she'd finally be free, instead she woke to her last client lifeless in her bed. Suddenly, she became the prime suspect in the murder of Adrian Graves, a powerful politician who runs half the city. With her bail set at $50,000, Jasmine is sure she'll rot in jail. Until her bail is anonymously paid and she's released. Jasmine barely makes it home before she's kidnapped by a strange man. That man is Alexander Moore, a ruthless mafia boss. He reveals he paid her bail, he says he took her to protect her and the situation is much bigger than she thinks. Jasmine is terrified, she wonders why a man like him would want to protect her, until he tells her the truth. Adrian Graves isn't dead.”
