Between Secrets and Obsession

We met in the most cliché of ways—getting drunk at a frat party. She was pure temptation and one I almost couldn’t resist. And then a year later, I found out the truth of who she was. Although I hunt criminals for a living and have to be on my A-game so I don’t get killed, nothing could’ve prepared me for the gorgeous brunette who knocked me off my axis. It’s been impossible to forget the girl who almost gave me her virginity. She would’ve until she told me her real age, and I shot her down. In a twist of fate, we’re reunited, except she’s no longer underage but still equally off-limits. After years of ignoring her relentless advances, my willpower eventually snaps. When I admit my true feelings, everything finally falls into place. But when my poor choices catch up with me, it puts us both in danger. Things fall apart as quickly as they come together when I’m used as a pawn in a game of corruption and power. There’s no easy way to explain why I betrayed her, but I’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Even if it means breaking her heart—and mine.
