FBI agent Devin Kincaid is assigned the urgent task of tracking down the abducted grandson of the rich and powerful Ryan Fortune. A determined loner whose grit and tenacity make him the best man for the job, the last thing Devin needs is the help of the boy's aunt, Vanessa Fortune. First, she's too emotionally involved, and second, she's way too much of a temptation he doesn't need.
A criminal psychologist, Vanessa can't sit on the sidelines while her family lives its worst nightmare. She's not running from the fierce attraction between them, but knows Devin is doing everything he can to convince himself that a Fortune heiress and a street-smart cop don't mix. But as tensions rise, passions flare and soon dangerous situations call for desperate measures—and a willingness to trust all they've got.
