Society has no place for a woman without means, and with nowhere to turn, Bronwyn is lost...until, from out of nowhere, a handsome gentleman steps in and makes her an offer she can't refuse. WILL DESIRE TEAR THEM APART? Secrets and subterfuge are in Marco Black's blood. As one of Nemesis, Unlimited's most senior agents, Society women aren't his usual cup of tea. But Marco's sixth sense tells him that there's more to Bronwyn than meets the eye...and he wants to help the brazen beauty retrieve her lost fortune. But is his attraction to her worth the risk? His mission will lead him all the way to Les Grillons, France's most ruthless crime syndicate. Soon, Marco and Bronwyn will find themselves facing a danger that could cost them their lives―and a passion that is priceless.
