"No other romantic suspense author gives this combination of intense romance in a big story." ~~Goodreads reviews

She enforces the law and he's a deadly rule breaker, but risking her heart is her greatest danger when he becomes a protector.

In this enemies-to-lovers romance, Ryder Van Dyke is stuck in an Atlanta penitentiary facing the death penalty after being framed for murder. When his last hope for freedom disintegrates, he's offered a commuted sentence – if he helps the FBI nail a bigger criminal, his father. Only family is allowed inside his father's personal compound. To prove his innocence or tap his Special Forces skills to disappear if he can't, Ryder accepts a deal to take an agent in as his wife.

FBI analyst Bianca Brady spent two long years substantiating that the head of Van Dyke Enterprises is guilty of funneling weapons to terrorists. Now all she needs is the proof, but she hadn't expected to marry a criminal who hates her. Her team gathered the evidence to put Ryder in prison.

Bianca's the last person Ryder will trust, but he has to accept the FBI offer or live forever in a cage. The unlikely pair must navigate a minefield of deadly secrets and attacks as well as sizzling chemistry. When Bianca becomes a hired killer's next target, Ryder is forced to make a choice - give up his freedom or risk the life of the woman who's stolen his heart.
