Mike Keillor, a former Marine sniper and SWAT officer turned security expert, has built his life on protecting others while feeling nothing, even toward the nameless women he forgets by morning.
Golden-eyed Chloe Mason changes that the moment she walks into his office, and he knows she is not someone he can leave behind at sunrise.
Chloe spent her childhood in hospitals and her adolescence learning to disappear, then arrived in San Diego with a manila envelope, a secret hope, and a past that still sends killers after her.
Against the odds she finds the family she never had, along with an immovable, infuriating Mike who is always there and never quite hers.
When Russian operatives target her, he steps between Chloe and the danger without hesitation, and she finally sees what she means to him.
Their romantic suspense is a collision of tenderness, heat, and threat, drawing two damaged people toward the salvation they may become for each other.
