Security specialist Becca Haney is climbing the career ladder at the Society for the Study of the Aberrant Mind, also known as SSAM. Protecting clients is her passion. Protecting the sexy detective she’s developing feelings for is her duty. Knowing her past could damage his efforts to rebuild his career, she walks away after a brief affair, determined to never look back.
New York City Detective Diego Sandoval is accustomed to tracking the most hardened of criminals and solving the most puzzling of cases, but Becca’s abrupt end to their budding relationship leaves him confused and frustrated. Luckily, his new assignment protecting her from the human trafficking ring she’s been investigating gives him another shot at understanding the intriguing woman. But he’ll have to get past her defenses first.
When Becca acquires another admirer, known only as “the Fan,” she’ll need Diego’s help. The Fan believes he’s the perfect partner for her—and he’ll kill to prove it. Becca and Diego will need to let down their guards if they want to survive.
