Jake Sommers earned his SEAL nickname "the Snake" by moving fast and silent. He used those same skills to break Michelle Carter's heart four years ago, walking away because he believed it would protect her. Now Jake wants another chance with Michelle, but she refuses to forgive him for abandoning her. When Michelle's brother runs the Black Knights elite operations agency and angers a dangerous mobster, Michelle faces a terrible choice. She must trust Jake with her life, the same man who shattered her trust before. Jake plans to win her back by proving he can move slowly this time. Michelle discovers that beneath his cold reputation, Jake burns hot for her. As danger closes in around them, their old attraction reignites. Jake must keep Michelle alive while convincing her that this time he will stay.
