The masks we wear can hide our deepest desires...or reveal them.

Wedding rings, babies, commitment? No thank you. Working for a company that's wall-to-wall, testosterone-fueled alpha males, Sandy Hallquist is in her element. By day, she's the picture of calm, cool efficiency. Off hours, her inner adrenaline junkie is off the chain.

His whole professional life has been all about being invisible, but nothing about Troy McPherson is real, not even his name. It's the only way he can manage Hauberk's international offices while hiding his other career: assassin. But in one moment of weakness, Troy's carefully constructed mask begins to crack. Cracks that reveal his yearning for things he can never have. Family. Stability. Love.

Too bad they're the last things on Sandy's must-have list. By the time she realizes the heat between them will last a lifetime, his next mission could make him disappear from her life.

Permanently.
