Synopsis

FBI agent Karen Thorne lives by discipline and the law—until a mission to destroy the Archer crime family leads to Lynn, a scarred twenty-year-old student hiding quiet resilience beneath a meek facade. Hostility turns into dangerous intimacy as Karen's duty collides with a forbidden need to protect. Caught between justice and desire, they watch their certainties crumble, surrender to each other, and find redemption in a love neither can escape.
