Aria Wilde runs the Dark Horse Dive Bar with efficiency and precision. If only her life ran that way too. Brokenhearted and bitter after a very public and messy split with her ex (Wyoming Wilde – Book 3), Aria is gun shy when it comes to men. But her brother-in-law’s FBI brother, Nick Gunn, has been a sexy distraction when he’s in town. He makes her sizzle every time he’s near. But as their relationship deepens, she thinks he may be the one—and also the one who could decimate her heart if she risks it once again.

Assistant special agent-in-charge Nick Gunn is happy his brother Mason found love and a new lease on life with Lyric Wilde, but it’s her sister Aria he can’t stop thinking about. Their long-distance relationship wears on both of them. Their two lives seem so different, both of them tied to their jobs and where they live. A compromise seems insurmountable, even if they both want it. He knows he needs to make a change—one for the better if his brother’s new life with Lyric is any indication of what he could have with Aria—but is he ready to make a commitment that’s never worked out for him in the past?

When a case goes sideways, hiding out in Blackrock Falls where his brother can watch his back seems like the ideal way to be with Aria, give their relationship a real shot, and lay low. He thinks he’s safe in the small town, but he underestimated the killer after him for revenge. All he does is put a target on Aria’s back. And as a killer closes in, he realizes seeing his future without her in it is impossible. Losing her would be devastating.

And when things go terribly wrong, it will be anyone’s guess who will save who, and if any of them will make it out alive. But Nick’s not going down without a fight, or getting the woman he loves.
