Dakota finds Hannah on one of his missions and sees the way she fights off her attacker even though there's no hope of her winning. Still her spirit impresses him and her suffering touches his heart. He takes her under his protection and what starts off as admiration and respect develops into something much deeper and dangerous for the assassin and forces him to experience new intense emotions he struggles with. Dakota scares Hannah and turns her on at the same time. He's dangerous, probably the most dangerous of all the assassins next to Ebony and Silas and she's falling for him fast and hard, even when she thinks he could never truly love her. She's damaged and doubts she can get better and Dakota is an assassin whose calm, cool, demeanor comes unravel whenever she's in his presence. Perhaps the extremely protective, extremely possessive assassin is exactly what she needs to heal or perhaps he's holding her back. From the novel "His Best Kept Secret" comes the second sequel of the assassins starting with our favorite Native American, Dakota, finding true love.
