An influx of fentanyl-laced heroin has descended on the city like a plague, leaving lives and families dead and broken in its destructive wake, but the men and women sworn to protect their city are ready to fight back.
KPD patrol officer Veronica Roni Ramsey is tired of responding too late. From overdoses to suicides, the hardest calls are the ones where all she can do is secure the scene and wait for investigators and medical examiners. Overworked and heading for burnout, the perfect opportunity to flip the script is dropped in her lap. Only it’s being offered to her by the one man she vowed never to trust again.
OCU Investigator Trace Ridenour has hit a wall in the biggest case of his career. Every day another overdose call is logged, and the number that turn fatal seems to be rising faster than the heat index. All he needs is one loose thread to pull, and the whole infrastructure will unravel. When a routine undercover buy finally reveals the thread he’s spent months searching for, he quickly realizes there’s only one officer who can pull it free and expose the woven shroud of criminal activity. Too bad she’s the one woman who’d actually follow through on her threat to eviscerate him.
Temps rise and tempers flare as Roni and Trace join forces for the sake of the city they swore to protect.
But the sun isn’t the only source of heat, and the only question is will they let themselves get burned by the flame they ignited, or use it to forge the path to a brighter future for their city and themselves.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
