Wanting her means putting a target on her back...
Layla's taste in men runs toward the epic side of awful. With one murderous ex-fiancé already behind her, she's attempting to start over in Redemption Harbor with the help of her bestie, Nova. And wine. Lots of wine. The very thing that helps her make another epic mistake—trying to kiss Xavier, one of her newest friends. So what if he's sexy, funny, and has completely taken over her fantasies? Relationships and Layla don't mix. And Xavier is clearly not interested anyway.
But it's too late to walk away...
Any good hitman has no business forging a personal life...no matter how great the temptation. And Xavier is an exceptionally good hitman, with a long list of enemies. Even if Layla could somehow look past his profession, he'd never put her in jeopardy. But everyone has their breaking point—and when Layla accepts a date with someone else, Xavier's possessiveness is unleashed. The greater the risk, the sweeter the reward...until Xavier's sweet Layla is used against him by someone from his past. Now he'll do whatever it takes to protect her from the enemy hunting her from the shadows.
Author note: This is a stand-alone novel in the Redemption Harbor series complete with an HEA and no cliffhanger.
