My job is to keep her alive.
To ensure her heart beats long enough to reveal the identity of my father's killer.
Her job is to revive a heart that froze a long time ago.
Gabrielle Adams is a person of considerable interest, both to me and the Russian assassin who wants to add her to his kill sheet.
I am the only one standing in his way because I must keep her alive for my own reasons.
When I met her, those reasons changed.
I wasn't expecting to like her.
To enjoy our fiery exchanges and watch the anger in her eyes turn to lust as the sparks crackled between us.
To taste forbidden pleasure with the press of my lips against hers and to feel her heart tremble as I trapped it in my shaking hands.
Sworn off relationships, I never expected to fight for us; to go to war just to see her smile.
I wasn't prepared to fall in love with a woman who is heavily involved in the mystery surrounding my father's death, and I wasn't prepared for the possessive fury that roused the protective beast in me.
Dark secrets that venture into the light can destroy even the most powerful men.
I will not allow that man to be me.
A deliciously steamy, dark, and suspenseful forced proximity romance.
