Sparks are bound to fly… in every possible way.
Kennedy Claythorne, the newly appointed Police Chief of Grove Rock, has never been lucky in love. With a reputation as cold and unattainable, she reluctantly lets her best friend drag her out for a night at the bar—a rare chance to unwind. But she never expected to meet him. The man on stage, strumming his guitar, who has every woman swooning. And something about his intensity has even her icy heart thawing.
Fraser Knox came to Grove Rock to start over—build a new life for his son, reconnect with his brother, and find his place in NEXTUS Security. Playing his guitar at the local bar was supposed to be just a side gig, but when his eyes meet Kennedy’s across the room, the attraction is instant and undeniable. Before either of them can think, a night of passion throws them together—two strangers sharing more than just a bed.
The surprise twist? Neither of them knows who the other really is… until their professional lives collide. NEXTUS Security and the Grove Rock Police Department aren’t exactly on friendly terms, and suddenly Fraser and Kennedy find themselves caught between duty and desire.
With a dangerous new threat looming over Grove Rock, Fraser and Kennedy are forced to work together. But the tension between them only intensifies as they navigate their attraction and the rising stakes around them. The lines blur between professional and personal, and the heat between them is impossible to ignore.
Can Fraser and Kennedy let go of the past, face the danger together, and find something real in the midst of chaos?
Or will their love be shattered by the very forces that brought them together?
