Sometimes life just throws two people together.

Commander Mike Gallagher was not looking for wife number three. In his mid-forties, he'd given up on love. But life kept him running into Special Agent in Charge Kameron "Kam" Hood of Homeland Security Investigations for Human Trafficking. She was one of the most prickly women he'd ever met and they had taken an instant dislike to each other.

Kam Hood was new to San Diego when she had lucked into a tip that led her team to make the biggest human trafficking bust on the West Coast. She was too busy establishing herself in her new job to think about men...except Mike Gallagher. She enjoyed throwing him around in her Brazilian jujitsu class and making him submit to her.

When Kam's life is threatened, Mike steps in to keep her safe.

But can he keep his heart safe?
