He's an off-the-books assassin.
She's his neighbor who stumbles into his deadly world.

Former Navy SEAL Ryland "Rip" Mills is used to pulling the trigger without hesitation. He and his elite team handle black-ops missions for a secret, faceless group known only as The Agency. Questions aren't part of the job.

Until a covert op explodes in chaos.

One teammate is dead.
The intel was compromised.
And all signs point to a setup.

The Agency has decided his entire team is expendable. The hunters have become the hunted.

Harper Grant only meant to confront her sexy, sun-bronzed neighbor for standing her up. Marching over to demand answers seems like a good idea -- until she sees a dead body on the floor.

When bullets start flying, Ryland throws her over his shoulder and rescues her from certain death, invariably drawing her into his dangerous world of intrigue and betrayal.

With enemies closing in and a traitor possibly within his ranks, Ryland has two priorities: uncover the truth and keep Harper alive. But the more danger they face, the harder it is to ignore the heat building between them. Forced into hiding, sharing tight quarters, and trusting only each other, lines blur fast.

Ryland knows getting attached is reckless. But protecting Harper isn't just a mission anymore.

It's personal.

And anyone who touches her won't live long enough to regret it.
