Undercover DEA agent Ian Martin never expected a chance encounter with actress and real estate agent Sam Williams to upend his life.

Advance Praise

"Early and often, we see Van Vleet’s action scenes written with great skill and precision. [...] There’s a sort of natural choreography unfolding on the page, making it always easy to visualize and immerse ourselves in the cinematic thrill we come to expect from the Bournes and Bonds of the world." - Independent Book Review

"I enjoyed the chemistry between Sam and Ian and could not wait to see where it would take them. The book was beautifully written and had my attention throughout. The twists kept me on the edge of my seat, turning the pages as fast as I could. My thoughts kept returning to this book long after I finished reading it." Reader's Favorite
