A man approaches the desk. Short black hair. Piercing, but expressive, blue eyes. Tall, must be at least 6" taller than me. And muscular, goddamn. 

"Ms. Torrent, this is Sergeant Samuel Andrews," Sasha introduces us politely. 

"Call me Sam." His voice is deep but warm. Welcoming. Butterflies stir in my stomach. Slightly star struck, I reach out my hand to shake his. His is much larger and rougher but the way he touches me is soft. After a firm squeeze we pull apart. 

The way he looks at me. It's like he's looking through me. 

That's dangerous, Emily.

...................

Emily Torrent is a young police officer in major crimes. On the surface, her life is picture perfect. She has the job, the boyfriend, and the house. 

But look a little closer, and you might start to notice things. Little things like how she always wears long sleeves or the slight look of fear that crosses her face when her boyfriend calls. 

Most people don't look closely at anything. But Sergeant Sam Andrews is not most people. And as his and Emily's job brings them closer and closer together, Emily will have to work harder than ever to keep her secrets concealed...
