She trusts no one. He can't tell her the truth. And they've just been assigned to each other.

Officer Leona Vikira has spent her whole life proving she doesn't need anyone. Not the father who erased her. Not the department that keeps her at arm's length. Every person who was ever supposed to have her back has been somewhere else.

She's undercover, she's on her own, and that's exactly how she likes it. More, Leona has one rule about secrets. They destroy people.

Then Renegade PD hands her a rookie.

Patrick Mason came to Renegade to prove he can be a cop without his father's help. Problem is, he's carrying secrets that could get people killed?including his own family.

The street-racing ring they're chasing is a front for something far worse. So they go in together?she plays the girlfriend, he plays the driver, and neither of them mentions how easy it's starting to feel.

But covers don't hold forever. And these men kill cops.

Then Leona's best friend vanishes?and she starts to suspect someone inside the department is selling them out. Someone close. Maybe the one man beside her who still won't tell her the truth about himself.

Trusting him is the most dangerous thing she's ever done.

Some secrets keep you alive. Some cost you everything.

Forced proximity. Undercover partners. Secrets that could get them both killed?and the love they never saw coming.
