The Long Game: A Deep Cover, Forced Proximity Romantic Suspense
Harper Langley
I fell for the handler in my ear. Then my cover blew and he showed up in person.
I’ve been deep undercover so long I barely remember who I was before Seattle, before the lies, before Danny Rourke’s voice became the only thing keeping me tethered to myself.
Which is a problem, because my handler is the last man I should want. He still has every reason to resent me, I still remember the testimony that nearly destroyed him, and the second he drags me out of my blown operation, all that old bitterness comes with us.
Now we have forty-eight hours to run, nowhere safe to land, and too many reasons not to touch.
Then he steadies me with one look. Dresses my wound with hands that don’t shake. Holds me in the dark while men hunt us room by room.
Somewhere between the gunfire, the safe houses, and the man I swore I could never trust, I fall for him anyway.
And when the choice comes down to the case or Danny’s life, I choose him.
If I’m wrong again, I won’t just lose the mission.
I’ll lose the only man who knows who I really am.
