**************************************************

Phoenix Royer is one of the most heartless and highly skilled contract killers known to man. 

Or not. 

He enjoys what he does. 

If you want someone dead, he's who you call.

But what happens when he finds his most recent target already murdered and a breathtakingly silky, brunnette trapped inside his basement? 

An angel with a secret of her own...

He can't decide whether to kill her or to take her home.

She's a journalist who is also no stranger to the dangers of the real world.

Looking for the story of her career, she places herself right in the middle of it all.

And she just so happens to find it in the emerald, green eyes of a hitman.

Four people. Four lives. Four jobs. They're all involved in a murder that has already been solved, and it's up to them to stop the count of dead bodies before one of them dies. *** Following his suspension, a young and elite assassin who works for a clandestine government agency returns to his hometown. He notices things he doesn't want to see. His thirst for vengeance and hunger for murder fuels his new goal. Kill the person he once cared about. Since his tragic past, an FBI agent turned drifter has been hell-bent on delivering justice mercilessly. The former intelligence agent travels to Santa Monica to right a wrong that may or may not be wrong. An aspiring and young screenwriter who never gives up easily is falsely accused of a crime he did not commit, given the fact that all evidence pointed to the young man. There is no one he can turn to, no one who truly believes him. Until the day before his alleged arrest, he was given the option of going to jail or going with a stranger to prove his innocence. A rookie FBI agent who was recently tasked with going into the field and finding the agency's most valuable asset becomes entangled in a mess after teaming up with the one person she was asked to find. It could be costly for her, putting her limbs, career, and possibly her life in jeopardy. It all started with an indirect murder. Will these four be able to put a stop to it all before it spirals out of control and becomes a Killing Bind? *** Word count: [{85000 words - 95000 words}]
