Spies, vengeance, and one seriously well-dressed man
"If Bourne dressed like Bond and acted like Grey, you'd have Jax De Luca."
An addictive new romantic suspense series from the desk of USA Today bestselling author Deanna Roy/JJ Knight
Mia trembles as she reads the letter that arrives from Ridley Prison.
Seduction. Bondage ropes. Descriptions of things Mia has never experienced or known.
The man’s words are desperately passionate. He longs for a woman who must have given him a fake address. Mia’s address.
She plans to send the letter back. He’s a convicted felon.
But his words gnaw at her. She’s never done anything dangerous. And no man has ever talked to her like this.
So Mia writes him, pretending to be the woman he desires.
It's her one dark thrill in her dull, solitary small-town life.
The man is in prison for another fifteen years.
It's harmless. She is safe enough.
Until he escapes.

“I assume you won’t identify yourself.” I grip her ankle in a vise that I know will bruise. To her credit, she doesn’t even wince. This element of this girl’s training is solid.
“I’m Mia,” she says. “Mia Morrow.”
“Who wrote the letters?”
At that, she sags limply, her expression dropping into shame. “I did. I shouldn’t have. I—I led you on. I pretended to be K. Klaus.”
This makes me laugh out loud, ringing through the room with such force that the girl lurches away, banging against the headboard.
“Do you even know who Klaus is?” I ask.
She squirms against the wrist binding. “I assumed it was the woman you are in love with.”
I tuck the dagger back into my wrist holster and lift a polished shoe up on the base of the bed. I lean over, bracing my arm on one knee.
“Klaus is my partner. He came to this safe house to wait on my instructions. The letters were for him.”
“You—you like men?” she asks, still not understanding anything.
I drop my foot and come around to the side of the bed. She wiggles a little so that she can cross her loose leg over the slit in her gown, as if she is trying to preserve her modesty.
Whatever. I know how girls like her are trained. The innocent victim. They want to ensnare you, like a pool shark pretends to be a beginner.
But this one wrote me in my own code, which means she knew what she was doing, however pathetically she misinterpreted the knots.
I will show her I understand her game, and that I am not a Vigilante to be trifled with.
