I am the thorn in his side… I have known fear before. Now I’ve built a new life, one where I kick ass and take names but the terror of my past still haunts me. It colors every relationship I’ve ever had and no man can get close. Except the one I want to kill half the time. I am the shadow that haunts the night. I am a hunter, a protector...a force for good...I am Jonas Castillo. Jessica (JJ) Jones is the bane of my existence. A bright light in the dark. The crack in my armor. A loud, argumentative beautiful crack in my armor. And right now she needs me…she just doesn’t know it yet. **Prequel to The Force Duet.
