Besides, he was burned by a one night stand two years ago, and isn't looking to repeat that experience. But when a case he's working on gets the police involved, he finds himself face-to-face with the last person he wanted to see. Declan Cooper hasn't been able to forget Greg after their one amazing night together. And when Greg just happens to walk into his precinct, asking about his case, Declan feels like he's gotten a second chance. And he's determined to find out why Greg disappeared two years ago. One thing's for sure, the chemistry between them is just as electric as it was back then. But the closer Declan gets to the real criminals he's investigating, the more determined those criminals are to get Declan off the case. Even if it means they have to go through Greg.
