Death, Shaken Not Stirred

There's a place downtown where frosty pints of beer overflow, and wine stains the lips of whispering lovers under flickering chandelier light. If you tip the bartender generously, he'll slide over a free cocktail, but be careful, it might be kissed with a bitter death.

Lucas Santiago is a bartender at Penthouse, a high-end nightclub in San Francisco. On the outside, he's your average good-looking guy who takes care of his parents, protects his sisters, and dotes on his nibling.

But Lucas has a secret.

Order a special drink at the bar, and it's the magic word to hire him as a hitman. However, Lucas has standards and will only accept contracts that are low-risk or serve the greater good. When he crosses paths with Hazel, a battered wife, he can't help but want to break all his rules for the woman with sad, honey-colored eyes.

The trouble is, she's involved in a sticky web that might cost him everything--including his life.
