Masked Intentions

She came to seduce a monster.
She nearly begged a stranger to ruin her instead.

A forbidden-agents steamy romance packed with danger, deception, and eventual heat.

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. 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.

The brakes are applied before it goes too far.
Neither forgets the intense attraction
Now, the stakes are even higher for Gideon Hale
He must protect her, claim her, own her
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.

This is a darker undercover masquerade steamy novella with a happy for now (HFN) ending.
