Being the enforcer—and the middle brother—in a crime family isn’t just dangerous. It’s a curse.
Townsend ‘Sen’ Whitfield has enemies everywhere. With a price on his head and a bullet wound in his arm, he stumbles into a quiet funeral home, looking for a place to get stitched discreetly. Instead, he finds her—Tessa Quinn, the enigmatic, deaf mortician who stitches up corpses by day… and now, a criminal.
Tessa’s been deaf since childhood, but nothing about Sen is silent. Fluent in sign language and scarred by violence, he speaks to her in ways no one else ever has. She should turn him away. Instead, she offers him sanctuary at her remote lake house.
But peace is a luxury Sen can’t afford.
When a ruthless assassin tracks them down, Sen will stop at nothing to protect Tessa—even if it means calling in backup: his fiercely loyal best friend, Digger Turner. There's just one complication... Digger’s in love with Tessa too.
As bullets fly and secrets unravel, Tessa finds herself caught between two men who’d die to protect her—and a criminal mastermind who’s closer than any of them suspect.
In a deadly game of loyalty, love, and lies… no one escapes untouched.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
