Called on to investigate businesswoman - and suspected crime boss - Fiona Dunhill, Raven finds herself drawn into a deadly game. And the one man who can help her is the one man she can't afford to trust.After Fiona asks him to act as a liaison to the police in a murder investigation that could land on her doorstep, Christian Delacorte, head of Dunhill security, must set aside his bitterness to protect the only person he considers family. He pledges to protect Fiona, hoping to manipulate the police in the process. But Christian finds Raven is a hard woman to fooland an even harder woman to ignore. He forges an unlikely alliance with Raven to uncover the truth. Yet, despite the benefits, his association with the intriguing detective is a challenge, only stirring feelings he's tried to ignore.
