Masked Intentions: A Romantic Suspense Spy Tale

She nearly begged a stranger to ruin her instead.

Undercover agent Juliet Crawford is no stranger to playing a role. As Camille, she’s cool, calculated, and ready to do whatever it takes to infiltrate a smuggling ring tied to drug and human trafficking. Her mission leads her to an exclusive Halloween masquerade ... where secrets slip like silk and masks aren’t the only things people are dying to take off.

Her target is supposed to be dangerous and untouchable. Easy to hate.

But the man who corners her in the shadows? He’s none of those things.

He’s worse.

Gideon Hale has orders: protect the agent, don’t get involved, and keep his damn cover intact. But when the woman he’s meant to shield throws herself into his arms -- hungry, reckless, and stunning -- he breaks every rule to taste her lips and feel her arch beneath him.

He puts on the brakes before it goes too far. She doesn’t forgive him for stopping. Now, with the clock ticking and the masquerade unraveling, they’ll have to face the truth:

They’re both lying.

They’re both in danger.

And the only thing more explosive than the mission … is the way they want each other.
