"Value the people who sacrifice their something for you ... because maybe that something was their everything." - Unknown The brief was simple-infiltrate our rival's crew and steal the info we needed. Easy, right? I thought so, too, until I met Ryan. A woman with the ability to change my view on everything: who I was, who I am now, and what I want to be remembered for when the reaper comes to collect. I'm a killer, a scapegoat for hire-the man who'll take the fall for your immoral operation if you offer me the right price. I've made enemies along the way, and I'm forever watching my back. In a world as corrupt as mine, love and relationships remain an unobtainable target. So I act the fool, parade as the playboy, but all I really want is to belong to somebody. She made me think it could be her, that a woman so haunted by her past might actually need a man like me-somebody who can kill with his bare hands, a man who would sacrifice it all to see those he loved kept safe. That was, until she turned the table and risked it all to help me. When best-laid plans fall apart, and we're both put to the test, will love or loyalty prevail?
