Nicky had been taking care of herself for a long time. She ran from her criminal husband and has been hiding herself and the son he doesn't know exists. When her father dies, Nicky takes a risk which allows her husband's unwitting henchman to find her. On the run again, Nicky takes her son and runs to the only place she feels safe. Her friends hire a security firm to protect Nicky until her fugitive ex husband can be apprehended. Rhyder (Rhy) is the man on the job, but unbeknownst to Nicky, he is also the man her ex sent to find her. Rhy realizes he was tricked and used by Nicky's ex, but he isn't sure how much of what he was told about her might actually be true. Having been hurt before, he isn't willing to trust Nicky to be who she says she is. Nicky doesn't even want to know Rhy. She thinks she and her son are safer on their own and keeps trying to ditch Rhy. Eventually the two agree to work together, and long nights alone lead to lead to getting to know each other very well, in more ways than one. As the danger escalates, so does Rhy's desire to keep Nicky and her son forever, but his deceptions may tear them apart.
I was unfamiliar with this author but decided to check out the book based on the publisher. I always have good luck with Entangled Ignite titles. This story was no different. I enjoyed the characters, especially Nicky's son, Alex, and the fast pace of the plot kept me interested and invested in the story.
I received an ARC from the publisher via Net Galley.
