Vengeance is the monster forever bloodthirsty, but never truly satisfied... Tirrell Ellis didn't think his life could get any worse, but he is about to be proven wrong. Old acquaintances and enemies threaten to re-enter his life, placing everyone he loves in danger. Lack of money and mobility don't help the situation. Trapped in a wheelchair, resentful of his older, more successful brother and feeling smothered by his overprotective grandmother, causes him to feel like more of a failure. If he can somehow make things right maybe there's a chance at redemption...but at what cost? God must surely have a sense of humor because Tirrell is the last person Alex Solomon wanted to ever contact again. They didn't part on the best of terms, but strange things are afoot and she's running out of options. She can't shake the foreboding that her past is about to catch up with her and that means she'll do whatever it takes to keep her mother and daughter safe - even making a deal with the devil. If the road to hell is paved with good intentions, then Tirrell and Alex can keep each other company. Neither seemed to learn the lesson that impetuous choices lead to consequences; sometimes good... sometimes...not so much.
