"Titan!" a little girl yells.
I glance over at his house to see a tiny little girl running toward us. She's really short, with blonde hair that bounces as she runs. She's wearing a blue dress and those shoes that have the straps and shiny buttons on them. Even though it's cold outside, she doesn't have on a coat. Her little legs are moving too fast for her body and she keeps stumbling.
I take a step in her direction, worried she's going to fall. Before I can tell her to slow down, her feet tangle on a tree root and she loses her balance. A scared cry leaves her lips and then she hits the ground hard, landing on her knees.
"That's my baby sister, January," Titan says as the little girl throws her head back and starts to cry. He starts walking toward her. "She's four and she follows me everywhere."
She's really little and her knee is bleeding.
I jog toward her and crouch down beside her before Titan gets there. She looks up at me. Her eyes are a brighter green than Titan's, but they're filled with tears. She's pale, like those pretty dolls with the big eyes. Her and Titan have different skin colors, but they still look a lot alike.
There's a smudge of dirt on her nose and another on her dress, but she's still adorable. She really does look like a doll. I bet my mom would like her.
"It hurts," January whimpers, two big tears running down her cheeks.
The sight makes my heart feel funny again, only I'm not scared this time. I don't like that she's crying. It makes me feel like I should watch out for her and make sure she doesn't get hurt anymore. I decide that I'll take care of her too, like I do with Ma Rose. I'll keep her safe 'cause she's too little to do it by herself.

About Fight for You
The road to hell is paved with good intentions...but the path to redemption never hurt so good.
Some men deserve redemption. Some men are worthy of salvation. I'm not one of them. My name is Michael Kincaid, and I've got so much blood on my hands I'll never wash clean.
For ten years, I've tried to outrun my gangbanger past by burying myself in my work with the DEA. I've tried like hell to forget the day I damned my soul and lost everything…my family, my home, and the only girl I've ever loved.
I still can't outrun it.
No matter how far I go, January James haunts me.
Now one of my enemies—a local gang member—has it out for her. He isn't going to stop until she gives him the territory I left her all those years ago.
She deserves better than me, but she's mine anyway. It's time to stop running and fight for her.
She's an angel. I'm the devil on her shoulder. And this is my swan song.
When it's over, I'll either be the monster at the end of this book…or I'll be the man she deserves.
