Grady Kenton has loved and lost--and he doesn't plan on repeating it. He enjoys his semi-retired life as a consultant with the CIA while only taking the cases he finds interesting. He relishes the long seductive weekends with Brienne Chaylse, the beautiful liaison who understands his boundaries and accepts things the way he needs them to be. Secretly, Brienne doesn't understand why Grady can't move on from his past. What she does know is that he's more emotionally distant than when they'd first met and she can't accept the friends-with-benefits play any longer. Something has to change, and fate forces her hand when her identity as a CIA special agent is leaked to the media. She and Grady must race to discover whose betrayal runs deep while their true feelings emerge in this perilous time. Unfortunately, the secrets revealed have the potential to shatter the love they've shared while on pursuit of a danger that could change everything.
