Jaq should know better. As a detective in the homicide division, she's worked hard to get there. The last thing she needs is to fall in love with a criminal.

Simon has buried his past and any hopes for a meaningful relationship with it. His only aim in life is to keep his head down and stay out of trouble.

Do opposites really attract? Will Jaq and Simon decide it's safest to stay apart, or will they risk everything for love?
