Intrigued by this mysterious woman, Razor makes finding out who she is and what she's running from his mission.

With the entire agency backing him up, her secrets don't stand a chance of remaining hidden. Her biggest secret is that she just might have everything to do with his mission. The question is, will she trust him and Shepherd Security? Shepherd Security recruits only the best. They can protect someone in trouble like no other because they work in the shadows, invisible, and outside the system where the rules don't apply-just the oath they took. They don't exist. That's also why they can break any suspect and can get answers out of anyone accused. That's when they're called in, when someone must be protected at all costs, or when answers must be obtained, by any means necessary.Warning, this story is realistic, with adult language and violent content on the way to the HEA. This is book 3 in the Shepherd Security Series. Even though the story does continue from book to book, each is a stand-alone story and can be read without reading the prior book(s), but they are best enjoyed in order.
