Jonas
I live by three trust my gut, stay in control, and never let anyone close enough to be a weakness. Then Derrika Layne walked into my life—big blue eyes, a smile that could outbluff the devil, and trouble written all over her and blows my rules to hell. She’s undercover in a company sitting on national security secrets, and my job is to keep her alive while we hunt a traitor.
It should be simple—watch her back, keep my distance. But nothing about Derrika is simple. She’s reckless, brilliant, and every time she laughs, another piece of my defenses crumbles. The closer we get to the truth, the more I know I’d burn every rule I’ve ever lived by for one night in her arms.
Derrika
I’ve been buried undercover for six months, surrounded by lies and secrets worth killing for. I can take care of myself—always have—but when my cover gets blown, I end up with a new shadow. Jonas.
He’s also infuriatingly calm, maddeningly observant, and way too good-looking for my own sanity. Every time we’re alone—discussing intel, staking out suspects—he chips away at the walls I’ve spent years building. I’m falling for him, fast and hard. And I know better than anyone that in our line of work, love isn’t safe.
Still… when Jonas looks at me like I’m worth protecting, I almost believe it’s worth the risk.
