Digital dynamo Corin Faulkner has always worked behind the scenes at Victory, using her computer to help complete missions successfully. But being banned from searching for Victory’s nemesis has put her at a complete loss. When her vacation in LA starts out with action-movie hero Jace Weber asking her to help find his missing friend, she gets a chance to put her (lack of) field training to work. Her research uncovers a shady scam Jace’s friend might have been pulled into, and she and Jace follow a trail that leads them to a medical mastermind with dangerous intentions.

She really was so not good at this.

At first, the adrenaline of investigation is spiced with Corin and Jace’s immediate connection. More than just attraction, it’s something deeper that happens terrifyingly fast. But Corin’s first foray into field work lands her and Jace in the ER and then gets her caught by the bad guys. Tough to rescue someone when you need rescuing yourself. Jace has been along for the ride, deferring to Corin the way he defers to a director or stunt coordinator. With Corin’s life on the line, he’s pushed out of the lane he always thought he belonged in.

He really needs to be good at this.

Her straightforward “working” vacation gets complicated with the involvement of Corin’s imprisoned father. She’s forced to confront the family drama that disrupted her life before Victory hired her. Her too-intense, too-fast feelings for Jace are another disruption she doesn’t think she wants. But Jace’s go-with-the-flow perspective isn’t passive. He acts on his convictions, and his gut tells him he needs to keep Corin in his life—if he can save hers.
