BLURB
Raiden Kent. Wealthy. Possessive. Commanding.
To say his intense reaction to Scottie Sullivan barging into his life shocked him was an understatement.
Shrewd, savvy, confident, the former DEA agent ran circles around him in cyber security, his specialty.
Her curves and beauty made focusing on business absurd.
Raiden couldn’t predict Scottie would be his guardian angel in disguise, or how badly he needed her protection.
The day she saved his life made that clear.
Now he had to choose if having Scottie by his side was worth the angst she created.
Could he handle the constant threats hanging over her head each time she strode out the door?
Would her insistence on playing hero be their destruction?
Raiden recognized one thing.
A strong, independent woman like Scottie would never be dictated to.
He had a choice to make that would change everything.
EXCERPT
My first meeting with the Kents was… overwhelming. Acer was more excited than a kid with a new puppy. Cruze was broody, and Raiden… all I can say about him was he was flammable. Now I understood what Isla had been saying. These men were like nothing I’d ever encountered.
“What do you think about this?” Acer asked.
“I think we need to switch that up. You know how the human trafficking works with bids? The drug business doesn’t work that way. The cartels are very suspicious of who they deal with and take their ownership seriously. We have to approach them with much more caution.”
“Cruze, what do you think?” Acer asked.
“She’s the expert on who these people are. We should do what she recommends.”
“And Raiden? What about you?” Acer liked to ask the questions.
I peered over the laptop I was typing on to see him gazing intently at me. Eyes like pools of aquamarines I could gaze at for days, a day’s or more worth of scruff on chiseled cheeks, and capped with dark hair messed to perfection. I lost myself in his expression until his lips curved into a hint of a grin.
“I’ll go with what Scottie recommends. She understands the drug world better than any of us.” Then he switched gears on me. “So how did you end up with Wolfe?”
“Uh, Gemini and I worked together on a case. The DEA hired WI for something we’d been working on. The job offer came afterward.”
“Then, Scottie Sullivan, give us what you got. Let’s see how good you really are.” His half-hooded gaze sent shivers racing over every inch of my skin. This man spelled trouble. Maybe not. Maybe I could just ride him a few times. That idea heated my core, which was not good. Mind out of the gutter and all that. I would not have dirty thoughts about this man. Yeah, right. I’d been warned, by his sister-in-law, of all people.
No dirty thoughts, Scottie. Repeat that. It didn’t work.
We went to work, but honestly, with him by my side, it was hard to concentrate. He occasionally did this thing with his tongue where he’d poke it out and then run it across the center of his lower lip. That tiny movement sent me squirming in my seat. One time he caught me and one brow arched. My cheeks heated to the temperature of a kiln. I’d dressed entirely too warm for being near him too. Perspiration dripped down the valley between my breasts. I’d already taken off my cardigan but would have to put it on again so sweat blotches didn’t show on my shirt.
