Cold air curled over the skin of my thigh and I snuggled closer to the heat next to me. A soft snore invaded my dreams and I grunted in annoyance. The warm pillow under my head moved, rolling me over so I was on my back and immediately yanking me out of my dreams.
“What?” I started to push him away,
but his hands closed on my wrists and lifted them above my head.
“It’s been a long time since I woke
up next to someone.” His voice sent goosebumps over my skin and I froze. One of
his legs rested between mine and every movement made it deliciously clear how much
he enjoyed having a bedmate. “I’m not used to it.”
“Wh-why is that?” His lips were so
close to mine I couldn’t focus on anything else. Flashes of our kiss from the
night before ran through my mind.
“Trust.” He leaned a little closer,
his lips almost touching mine. “Can’t sleep next to someone who might kill
you.”
“That would be difficult.” I licked
my lips and tried to calm my racing heart.
“But not with you, love.” He let go
of one of my wrists to run a finger along my jaw. “You’re not going to kill me
in my sleep.”
“How can you be so sure?”
“It’s in your eyes.” His eyes dipped
down to my lips. “The eyes never lie.”
Ava McKenzie is a creature of habit. Life is passing her by and she has nothing to show for it. She’s had the same job since she started college, she orders the same dish every time she goes to her favorite restaurant, and only reads books from authors she knows. There is nothing new or surprising in her life… until her best friend marries a man from London. When her newlywed friend asks her to house-sit while she honeymoons, Ava jumps at the chance. She thinks this could be the very thing she needs to shake up her life. Ava throws herself head first into her new lifestyle; she wants to try everything, go everywhere, and never get stuck in a rut again. Of course, offing a man in a car garage hadn’t been one of the things on her list to try.
Owen Walker spends every day in a new place with a new case. As one of the most renowned assassins in the world, he has his choice of marks—and he’s never failed in a mission.

What he isn’t expecting is to help an attractive, confused American woman find out how she’s ended up on a hit man’s list.
As Ava and Owen dodge bullets, will they be able to escape their undeniable attraction to each other? Or will all of that chemistry blow up in a shower of hot and dangerous sparks?
