The Assassin
Gabriel Mancini represents everything Ardan Murphy hates.
He’s disloyal.
Money hungry.
Honor isn’t a word he knows.
He is also too damned handsome for his own good.
When the Irish mob boss, Sloan Killough, finally gives Ardan permission to find and kill Mancini, the job isn’t as straightforward as he expects. Ardan’s never had a target quite like Mancini, and the ex-CIA agent always seems to be one step ahead.
When their game of cat and mouse turns into something more, their heated connection changes in ways neither expects, and their history becomes irrelevant. When enemies close in from both sides, Ardan and Gabriel must choose between their budding romance and the promises made to very dangerous men….
Warnings: This story’s trigger warnings include one scene that could be considered dubious consent, rough love scenes, and gun play. It also has mentions of domestic abuse; however, this is not between the main characters.
