When her crew is hired to take down the Cartel, they slip up, and Miamor loses her sister in the process. She is determined to get revenge. Unknowingly, she meets the son of Carter Diamond — and he immediately catches her heart. She is sleeping with the enemy, and when she finds out, she is torn between love and revenge.
