Charlotte Hayes has waited her entire life to meet her long-lost half-sister. Though Jen Hayes seems to be everything Charlotte hoped for in a sister, the truth of Jen’s past and her menacing fiancé shatter Charlotte’s once sought out dream. Dragged into the dangerous world of drugs and prostitution by her sister, Charlotte is manipulated into becoming an unknowing pawn for an FBI investigation. With more than just her life on the line, Charlotte fights back, even after the ropes are cut.

Charlotte Hayes was looking forward to a fresh start at the FBI academy, but the bomb Special Agent Chase McKinney dropped before she boarded the plane set her head spinning. McKinney had always been the rock on the other end of a phone line, and Chase had been the one man who made the darkness from Charlotte’s past disappear. Finding out they were one and the same clouded her mind and left her questioning his every move. With each secret that is unraveled, her trust in Special Agent Chase McKinney’s motives wanes. When McKinney is assigned as a counselor at the academy, the chemistry between he and Charlotte is as volatile as the crime family they put behind bars. And that crime family isn’t done with either one of them yet. Taunted with new threats, McKinney and Charlotte are forced to work together as a team to uncover their latest attacker. Will Charlotte trust McKinney to have her back after everything he’s kept from her?

After an unexplained breakup and months without speaking to him, Charlotte Hayes is given an undercover assignment that forces her into a steamy relationship with Special Agent Chase McKinney as part of their cover. Working hand-in-hand, the pair must determine the intentions of a billionaire and his wife and their possible link to terrorist activities. With exes, explosions, secrets, and Las Vegas temptations coming at them from every angle, Charlotte and Chase must contain the damage, control their feelings, and find a way to survive.

Charlotte Hayes was finally at a point in her life where things were falling into place. Career, husband, baby on the way, all things she dreamed of but never thought she’d be that lucky. When a new case is placed in her hands, it tests not only her skills as an agent, but the very foundation of the relationship she shares with Chase. With the past creeping in, and secrets still hanging over their heads, will Charlotte’s passion for saving her hometown be the catalyst that destroys her relationship with Chase?
