When Luna Hart stops at her favorite downtown coffee shop for a quiet cup of espresso, she doesn't expect to lock eyes with a stranger who looks like he walked straight off the pages of a forbidden fantasy. Archer Vale-tattooed, confident, with a voice like smoke and eyes that seem to see everything-asks for her number with a smile that turns her world sideways. She gives it to him.
He texts. He calls. He wants her. And Luna, careful and closed-off after too many heartbreaks, finds herself saying yes. Again. And again. But Archer doesn't just want a date. He wants to worship her.
To break down her walls, and devour what's underneath. And what begins as slow sips of desire becomes a wild, heady obsession-the kind that could burn them both if they're not careful.
This is a love story. A lust story, and everything in between.

Her most lethal weapon is herself . . . • • • Agent Eleven was always a loyal Agent for the Division. Until she wasn't. Running and going rogue a year ago had definitely put her on their hit list, but what happens when they find her again and force her back to the very world she ran from? Forced to join the elite team of Operatives and their domineering leader with a knack for watching her too closely, she has to tread lightly to finish what she started. Because little do the team know, they weren't the masterminds behind her return. And she isn't leaving again until she finds out the truth about what happened a year ago, and keep her identity a secret while she's at it. With a too hot for his own good leader, his best friend who seems to see too much and two seemingly innocent operatives by her side, will Agent Eleven uncover the truth? And what will she do once she realises she's captured the attention of the very serial killer her team is assigned to hunt? This plan might just be her stupidest yet, and it might just be the one that's gets her killed. • • • I watch from the corner of my eyes as he brings the dagger up to the straps of my top, slipping it under the thin fabric. "There's just a few things in my way." He hushes, dark eyes hooded. He slices through the fabric in one quick swipe, the strap hanging limply as he moves to the next one and repeats the process. • • • Cover by Quirky Circe on Etsy Highest ranking #1 in spy 1/1/2020 (almost 4 years of this - holy hell) #1 in action- adventure 3/1/2020 #1 in romance 18/1/2022 #1 in adventure 18/1/2022 # in secretagent 21/2/2022 #1 in badassreads 21/4/2023 #1 in action-romance 19/8/23 Hit 1M reads on 9/3/2021 Completed final edit on 13/09/2022Complete
