U.S. Marshal Titan Everett never loses his prey, and he always stays mission oriented. His latest mission? Heâs working with a group of cold case solvers called the Ice Breakersâheâs chasing down a runaway witness, a woman who may be the key to solving a string of unsolved murders. Seems like a simple enough job. After the hell heâs seen, locating one Cassidy Jacobs, former kindergarten teacher, should be a walk in the park.Â
She doesnât want to be found.
When you manage to escape from a twisted killerâwho happened to be your boyfriendâyou grab life by both hands and you hold on tight. You run like mad from danger, you reinvent yourself over and over, and you donât look back. Ever. Unless, of course, the past comes barreling at you in the form of one truly massive and strong U.S. marshal.
Titan is big, dangerous, and determined to bring Cassidy back home. He also has the most incredible eyes sheâs ever seen and a voice that makes her whole body ache with longingâĻProblematic. Very. Because the last time she fell hard for a sexy stranger, he wound up being a monster.
Home is where the nightmare waits.
Scarred and twisted by his own past, Titan never claims to be anyoneâs hero. He barely talks, and charming is the last word anyone would ever associate with him. The bubbly, beautiful Cassidy is his complete opposite, and the scorching, primal attraction he feels for her catches him completely off guard as they embark on what has to be the road trip from hell.
Unfortunately, Titan isnât the only one who has found Cassidy. Sheâs been running non-stop, but she just canât seem to run far enoughâor fast enoughâto evade the man who wants her dead. When Titan saves her life and promises protection, she agrees to a partnership with him. Heâll protect her, and sheâll help him draw out the killer. No biggie. Not like sheâs utterly and completely terrified.
But eventually, you have to stop running and start fighting.
This isnât just another hunt for Titan. Everything has changed in his world because of Cassidy. Losing her canât happen, but putting the man in the ground who has been terrorizing her? Absolutely on Titanâs to-do list. New mission: Protect Cassidy and catch a killer. And when the case is closed, maybe Cassidy will want to start a new life once againâĻonly this time, with Titan at her side.Â
U.S. Marshal Titan Everett is on the hunt. On the outside, Titan looks scary as the devil, and heâs well aware that he often sends small children running. But Cassidy isnât afraid of him. Beautiful, bold, and with a spark for life that draws him close, she is unlike anyone heâs ever met before. She needs help, and sheâs going to get it. Because from the first moment he sees her, Titan knowsâĻhe will move heaven and fight hell to keep her safe.
