A romantic detective series novel
Ex-special ops legend Dane Blaise is desperate to recruit Shana George away from Scotland Yard to partner with him in his new venture, Beachcomber Investigations. She has impressive skills and if he's honest, he needs her to keep him grounded. But most of all, Dane wants to keep Shana on his home island of Martha's Vineyard because he can't get past his insane longing for her.
When Shana's boss David Young assigns an important case to Beachcomber Investigations, he forces her to decide on the spot. She chooses to partner with Dane, going with her gut—or more accurately her heart—rather than her brains. They may be good partners in crime-fighting, but they are all wrong for each other in every other way possible. He's soulless and lost and likely has more wounds from his past than the bullet and knife scars scorching his body show. But she's crazy—about him.
Their important case is to protect Dane's old special ops buddy, Acer. They need to find whoever paid a sniper to take a shot at Acer—before the sniper takes another shot—and doesn't miss this time.
Dane and Shana need to be on top of their game to keep Acer alive, and not on top of each other. But each of them is secretly worried about whether that's possible—and worried about what will happen if it's not.
