Trust Me

Sydney Somers

She’s running for cover—and right into his arms.

The Lassiter Group, Book 1

After three months on the run, Detective Maxine Walker figures no one will find her behind a counter in a small Canadian town. It might even be safe to grab a beer with the sexy stranger who’s just come through the shop door. Then the bullets start flying.

When he saves her—then takes her prisoner—she assumes an arms dealer who set her up for murder has put a price on her head.

Lucas McAllister has doubts as to whether Max killed his partner, but it’s his job to bring her in. Plus, she could be his only lead to a missing biological weapon. That means he’s not letting her out of his sight, not for a second. Which shouldn’t be tough given the possessiveness that rushes through him with every touch. When the resourceful detective uses their attraction to attempt distraction, his hands-off policy is blown all to hell.

As the real hit men close in, trust is in short supply. But if they can’t trust each other, their lives—and their hearts—may get caught in the crossfire.

This book has been previously published and has been revised and expanded from its original release.

Warning: Featuring a sexy professional soldier who always comes out ahead and the resourceful woman determined to bring him down any way she can. Also contains graphic violence, handcuffs, sizzling forced intimacy and the kind of love worth surrendering for.
