The second she lets me in, I’m a ruined man. I’ve been merging with hosts my entire life. Slipping under their skin, living in their minds, protecting them – it’s what I do. I’m a professional, and I keep my distance. Then I’m hired to be her bodyguard. An undercover cop infiltrating the deadliest criminal organization in the country, and I’m her hidden weapon. Merged with her body, experiencing her every thought, her every desire. I’m supposed to protect her and stay detached. But her thoughts unravel me. The fantasies she’s been hiding drive me insane. She wants to surrender, to be claimed by someone strong enough to handle her intensity. And I’m a monster too dangerous for anyone to want. I become addicted and terrified, knowing that when I must separate from her, I'll leave my sanity behind.
