Description

This copy is signed by the author.

Some mistakes you see coming.

Others show up bleeding on your doorstep in the middle of the night, beautiful and dangerous and twenty years too young. I should have slammed the door in his face.

Five years of peace on my tropical island. Since I left the mercenary life behind and became an innkeeper. Five years of telling myself I was done with danger.

Then, Nico washes up on my doorstep one stormy night.

He’s not who he says he is, but neither am I.

When he presses that blade to my skin, I should be afraid.

Instead, I feel alive for the first time in years.

He may be used to being the most powerful person in a room, but if this brat thinks he’s the one in control, he’s about to learn a big lesson. The hard way.

Trapped together for weeks while storms rage outside, the tension between us becomes explosive. He’s hiding from something, or someone, and his past is catching up fast. But he’s not the only one with blood on his hands.

As his enemies close in and the island becomes a hunting ground, we’ll have to decide: fight each other, or fight together?

Either way, someone’s going to break first.

And Kiah McClane never yields.

Expect: Unconventional power exchange, forced proximity, enemies to lovers, reverse age gap, morally grey characters, and a heroine who knows exactly how to handle dangerous men.
