Description

Annabelle Stevens has always been able to keep her work as one of the nation's top Assistant U.S. Attorneys separate from her personal life. On the surface, she's cool, calculated, and professional. But the truth is, her heart beats for one man: Connor Evans. For years, she's loved him from afar, but he's played a dangerous game with her emotions, leaving her heart in pieces. Now, a new boss has assigned her to an elite DEA-led task force, thrusting her into close proximity with the one man she can't escape—and the one man she can never seem to let go of.

Connor Evans, the quintessential bad boy with a badge, carries a dark past. Abandoned by his parents and shuffled through the foster system, Connor never believed he was deserving of anything good. For over a decade, he's kept Annabelle at a distance, convinced that his own damaged soul could never belong to someone as perfect as her. But when fate forces them to work together on a high-stakes case, everything they've fought to keep buried comes rushing to the surface.

As the lines between personal and professional blur, their relationship is pushed to the breaking point. One wrong move could destroy everything they've built. Now, Connor must face his demons and do whatever it takes to win Annabelle's trust—and her heart—back before they both fall apart.
