Spencer Lark knows Arizona Storm's darkest secrets. He knows about the nightmare that shattered her trust. He knows she's vulnerable. But he needs her help to expose a smuggling operation that connects to his own tragic history. Arizona agrees to play decoy despite the danger. She wants her life back, and this mission offers a path forward. Working with Spencer proves more complicated than either expected. His protective instincts kick in as he watches her blend courage with fragility. Arizona finds herself drawn to her distractingly attractive partner even as they set their trap. The smugglers close in. The plan accelerates. Arizona faces two kinds of risk now. The criminals hunting her represent one threat. The bounty hunter protecting her represents another. She might lose her life to the first. She might lose her heart to the second.
