Getting caught up and completely over her head, Montana falls in too deep and needs a reminder on where her true loyalty lies. With London’s lips at her throat and her partner Telly DeLorenzo on her back, she quickly discerns it’s either love or loyalty, and there is definitely no place for both in this game.
