USA Today best-selling author, Lexy Timms, weaves a story of loss, danger, and risking it all for love.

Always have an escape plan....

Stalked and hunted, Claire Carpenter barely manages to escape the clutches of the serial killer who murdered her brother. She doesn't know why she's become the killer's target, but she knows that FBI agent Fletcher Hughes is the only man who can keep her safe. And the only man who can banish her fear with a single, scorching kiss. With Fletcher guarding her and watching her every move, the lines between staying professional and giving into temptation get blurred - leaving Claire caught between her need to get justice and her dangerously intense desire for Fletcher.

Special Agent Fletcher Hughes knows better than to have an affair with the lead witness in a murder investigation. He has to protect Claire at all costs, and his growing attraction to her will only get in the way. Too bad he can't keep his hands off her. The chemistry between them burns too hot to ignore, and the woman who started off as off-limits becomes his number one obsession.

As Fletcher fights to protect her from a dangerous killer, he's quickly losing the battle against his desire for Claire. A physical, no-strings-attached relationship might be the only way for both of their hearts to come out of this unscathed. That is, if they live long enough to solve the case and catch a killer before he strikes again.
