Synopsis

Whatever it takes. As long as it takes. ® Blake King is a shadow no one sees coming. Code name Havoc , he’s a second-generation Guardian Security assassin, sanctioned to eliminate the world’s worst criminals. His next target, a European billionaire whose empire is built on corruption, trafficking, and blood. Elise Serra isn’t part of Blake’s mission. She’s an investigative journalist determined to uncover the truth behind her mentor’s suspicious death. Retracing his final stories, she stumbles dangerously close to his target’s world and straight into Havoc’s path. Blake isn’t a babysitter, but Guardian’s orders are clear. He is to keep Elise out of the way and alive until his mission is complete. Easier said than done. Her fire, stubbornness, ill-informed courage, and refusal to back down completely anger, mystify, and intrigue him. When Blake’s target sets his sights on Elise, this Guardian will do whatever it takes to finish his mission—and protect the woman who has become more than an assignment.
