Lianne is tired of fighting and being passed over. Everyone loves her strength, intelligence, and work ethic, but not enough to keep her around. Well, not without some major drawbacks. She’s never changed herself for anyone before, and she’s not going to start now. Not wanting to rely on her family name, she trudges on, putting her best efforts toward everything she tackles - be it at the gun range, in the office, or regarding her love life. That last one might not get the most attention, but when your last relationship ended with an abduction attempt, you’d put that on ice, too. Accused of spending too much time alone with his sketchbook and baking, Ben’s best friend drags him out to a costume party. A blond beauty catches his eye, and even though he knows she’s dressed up, there’s a gentle vulnerability underneath the character that calls to him. She leaves before he can get her number, and he regrets the lost opportunity. Outside of his personal life struggles, Ben is tired of training new employees at the design firm he works for. Something is going on to cause the turnover rate, but no one is talking. He’s informed yet another new person is being brought into the office, and everyone hopes they stay longer than the last three. The next week, a stunning and brilliant woman walks in. Then everything goes sideways - sabotaged files at work, physical attacks in the parking garage, and dodging bullets in an alley. Who knew a kiss with a stranger would change everything?
