When former enemies are captured together, survival becomes the ultimate test of trust.
Phoenix Darkmore built her reputation on controlled explosions and calculated risks. As VP of the Steel Roses MC, she's faced down cartels and military threats without flinching. But nothing prepared her for being chained up next to her alliance's most infuriating partner.
Demetrius "Reaper" Ashworth approaches every mission like the Navy SEAL he used to be—methodical, precise, and utterly controlled. The Iron Wolves VP has spent months trying to manage Phoenix's chaotic tactics. Now he's learning that survival might depend on trusting her completely.
Captured by enemies who want them both dead, they have 72 hours to escape a fortified compound in hostile territory. With Phoenix wounded and Demetrius fighting every protective instinct, their only chance is perfect coordination between two people who've never agreed on anything.
But somewhere between shared danger and whispered survival plans, professional respect ignites into something far more dangerous than the explosives Phoenix knows how to handle.
Equal partnerships aren't supposed to feel this intense. Tactical cooperation isn't supposed to include stolen glances and protective fury. And falling for someone shouldn't happen while planning escape routes from a Mexican prison.
Yet when the compound walls come down, will their carefully built defenses crumble too?
Can two battle-hardened leaders forge something stronger than steel, or will their explosive chemistry destroy everything they've fought to protect?
