Quiet Vengeance

FBI Strike Force Agent Deke Gates is on a mission to dismantle the Polish mafia's human tracking network before another shipment of girls disappears forever. He learned long ago that love was a lie, swearing off anything that could touch his heart again. Work is his life now, and he's not about to let his only witness walk away. Olympic gold medalist Lilli Nowak is the celebrated face of a prestigious scholarship program for young female athletes. A devoted single mother, she's determined to build a future for her three-year-old son. But when Lilli discovers her fame and success were used to lure vulnerable girls into a trafficking network—her world shatters. Cooperating with the FBI could destroy all she's worked for. Remaining silent could cost innocent lives. As Deke and Lilli race to expose a ruthless criminal empire, they find themselves in the organization's crosshairs. Every move pulls them deeper into danger and closer to each other. The sizzling, slow-burn attraction neither expected soon becomes impossible to resist. Now Deke faces the one battle he never saw coming. He can keep the promise he made to never risk his heart again... or risk everything to protect the woman and little boy who have become his future. Because the closer they get to stopping the traffickers, the closer the killers come to making sure they don't survive.
