The mission seemed simple: Step One: Find the Phoenix. Step Two: Kill the Phoenix. Step Three: Collect insane bounty. Step Four: Live happily ever after.
In the depths of space, Lark Sterling has one mission: bring down the Phoenix, the elusive leader of a criminal syndicate responsible for the tragic loss of her family.
After years of relentless pursuit, a covert opportunity arises—one that could provide her with the revenge she seeks.
But it comes with one condition: she’ll have to pose as the wife of Captain Damian Vaughn, a decorated military hero with a brooding past, a strict preference for working alone, and secrets of his own.
With the Phoenix in their crosshairs, Lark and Vaughn must put their differences aside to navigate through a maze of secrets, lies, and their own burning chemistry, putting their reluctant partnership to the test.
But in the shadows of their deadly mission, will their undeniable attraction ignite something more, or will their hidden scars and personal demons tear them apart before they can bring the Phoenix to justice?
