I’ve spent my entire adult life in a lab chasing breakthroughs instead of adventures. Saving lives is what I do. Having one? That’s never been my strong suit.
Then my lab is broken into and it’s clear someone will stop at nothing to steal the pharmaceutical formula I’ve spent years creating.
With nowhere else to turn, I run to the only man I trust to keep me alive. Shane Landon. My brother’s best friend. My first heartbreak. The gorgeous, infuriating bodyguard I never truly got over.
Finding him naked in his outdoor shower is embarrassing enough. Realizing he still looks at me like I’m the only woman in the world is even worse.
Now Shane is determined to keep me close as we race to my reclusive mentor—the one person who holds the final piece of the formula someone is willing to kill for.
The closer we get, the more dangerous the hunt becomes. And the harder it is to ignore the sparks between us. Shane has always put the job first.
Protecting me is just another assignment… until it’s not.
Because somewhere between running for our lives and sharing one impossible temptation after another, the line between duty and desire disappears.
If we survive the people hunting us, we might finally get the second chance we’ve spent years denying ourselves.
