A murder. An eyewitness. A disgraced assassin. Xander Black is on the run from everyone. Wrongly accused of a murder he did not commit, he needs to find the killers before they find him. Even with his connections, he still needs help. Scarlet Gold has hit rock bottom. Disgraced and thrown out of her families circle, she finds herself more alone and cold than ever before. A chance encounter brings these two together, and Xander enlists Scarlet's help. Help him prove he is innocent in exchange for a clean slate. Scarlet agrees, only to find that the real murderer is closer to home than either of them expected. They traverse a deep web of lies, truths and twisted, dark pasts. The truths become lies, and the lies, truths, and a new mystery surfaces, one that is moons old... One of them needs to die, but who?

"Previously known as... Scarletstroke: Girl assassin" * No hesitation * No killing of children * No killing of innocent people * No emotions * And defenitely, NO falling in love ~ Those are the main rules code named Scarletstroke, former assassin Scarlett Gonzales lives by. She is a highly-trained, highly-precise and highly-dangerous killer who considers herself the same as any other businesswoman, doing 'just her job' and convincing herself that she is dealing with 'just her target' rather than a person. She succeeds in contract killing better than any known assassin that ever existed and successfully ignores all feelings or emotions, knowing that they tend to make the "job" not go as planned. So when a new contract comes in and the mark is a certain gang leader that caught Scarlett's eye, she couldn't resist venturing deeper into a world filled with illegal activities on a personal mission to find out why he has a price on his head. Although, what she finds in that world isn't quite what she expected. Now, torn between duty and passion, Scarlett must decide if she pulls the trigger or if she becomes the target herself? Who knows, maybe he might be the answer to her deepest desires. Because her next target: Cayden Carlisle. +++ The culprit took in a deep, calming breath. "You may as well shoot me now, but just know that I am still going to kiss you." By the time he grabbed her waist with one hand and her wrist, connecting to the hand holding the gun, with the other... she was lost. Completely gone. She never stood a chance. His smell, his mouth, his soft growling noises. They were more than enough to disarm her. "I finally figured something out about you." He whispered, pulling her closer, trying to meld every part of her to him. "You display all your emotions through body language. In this case, your hand is betraying your mask." Every word of his was chosen for maximum impact. No wasted syllables, no extra breaths. Just facts.
