"I'm bringing you in...even if I have to hogtie you and toss you over my shoulder."

I'm six-foot-four of tattooed bounty hunter: wrangling prisoners is what I do. But I never had to deal with a gorgeous female spy with curves that don't quit and a PhD in pushing my buttons. The rest of my team warn me that she'll try to lie and flirt her way to freedom. I'm determined not to fall for it...not to fall for her.

But when the two of us wind up stranded far from civilization, it's up to me to transport her on foot through thick, untamed forest. And with each time she escapes and I have to chase her, with each time we tussle and I pin her down, with each time she pouts and I growl threats in her ear, the attraction builds. She teases so hard, I swear she wants me to take her over my knee.

When things go wrong, we're forced to go from fighting each other to fighting side by side. I begin to glimpse the broken heart she hides...and start to wonder if she's really the enemy. If her story is true then something terrible is coming...and she's the only one who can stop it. Can I trust a woman who lies for a living? Are her feelings for me real, or just an elaborate ruse? I'm going to have to decide because there's only one way to help her: go on the run with her. It'll split the team I love apart. I'll be a fugitive hunted by my closest friends. But I've fallen for this woman and I'll do anything to protect her.
