James has always lived by the shadows. In a packed New York office by day, he hides a cunning secret from a past that still hunts him.
Then Nick enters his life. Enigmatic, commanding, and with a talent for tying more than just loose ends.
What begins as a dangerous liaison soon becomes an unbreakable bond. But in a world where one slip could mean everything is exposed, the greatest risk isn't just falling in love, it's letting someone in. Caught between a relentless crime family on his trail and the growing heat between them, James must decide: surrender to the temptation ... or fight for a future when freedom means more than survival.
 
Secrets. Seduction. Survival. For those who believe love can thrive even in the darkest places.
