This is the second book in the Marquette Security series, with over 79,000 words of romantic suspense. Former police officer Ian suffered a significant loss that landed him at Marquette Security, working with four other people who are now his closest friends. As much as he loves working with them, though, they're not his partners. No one can ever fit into that role again-at least not until Hayley, an investigative reporter, walks in the office door, looking for help with a case she's stumbled upon in her own work. Together, Ian and Hayley will work to take down one of the largest trafficking rings in Chicago. With his past tragedy triggering his flight instinct and Hayley's life in danger, Ian is unsure how he'll make it to the other side. Will the love he feels for Hayley help him overcome even the worst of situations?
