One clean shot. One breath. One body down. That was the job. That was always the job. Until her. Adelaide Hart is supposed to be another contract. A name in a file. A federal forensic accountant standing one audit away from dismantling a billion-dollar sanctions-evasion network. But the deeper I dig, the cleaner the setup looks. Too clean. And I’ve spent four years hunting the kind of lie hidden inside a perfect file. So I take the contract for one reason: Not to kill her. To find the man who wants her dead. A.D. Hart built her life on precision, caution, and anonymity. Behind the masculine byline she’s used her entire career, she learned early that being underestimated can be its own weapon. She has no idea she’s already been watched. No idea a sniper has had her in his scope for fifty-one hours. No idea the man who kills the assassin sent to finish the job… is the one hired to pull the trigger. But when the cleanup crew arrives, survival means trusting the most dangerous man she’s ever met. And I don’t do trust. Not since the mission that destroyed everything. Not since I lost the brother who once had my back. Now we’re trapped in a Wyoming safehouse with enemies closing in, a conspiracy reaching farther than either of us imagined, and one brutal truth I can’t ignore: She was supposed to be the target. Instead, she became mine to protect. And I’ll put a bullet in anyone who comes for her. A pulse-pounding romantic suspense packed with deadly precision, emotional redemption, and explosive chemistry, Reaper is perfect for readers who love morally gray heroes, resilient heroines, and tactical danger with a deeply emotional core. Perfect for fans of Susan Stoker, Kaylea Cross, and Katie Reus, Reaper delivers a high-stakes blend of suspense, obsession, and hard-won love.
