Dáire Cronin is a stone-cold killer who works for an ultra-secretive government agency that doesn't officially exist. A highly trained assassin with a deadly aim and an even deadlier temper, Dáire is very good at what he does. He's a "no prisoners" kind of guy, a cold, merciless operative who makes an unforgiving enemy.

Star Kiernan is the only woman in the world for Dáire. He loves her more than his own life. Only her silky arms can hold his brutal world at bay and keep him sane in a world gone mad with violence. For her, he would risk anything, do anything, and God help the man or woman who gets in his way.

Tyndall Gentry owns Dáire, body and soul. She is his handler, his boss. She directs every part of his life, but she can't stop him from preferring Star to her and that is the one thing that makes Tyndall even more dangerous than the man she controls.

Under the hot, steamy sun of Florida's Panhandle, Dáire and Star will learn the hard way that unrequited love and ruthless lust can drive a woman to extremes.
