Angelica Rossi deserves to be behind bars, but if secretly working with the police to take down an art thief will keep her out of prison, sheâs willing to take the dealâeven when she discovers the thief is also a brute and a murderer. As a former con artist, sheâs learned to take care of herself.
Grieving his sisterâs fatal overdose, Donovan Gilcreast retreated to an eighteenth-century lakeside Victorian owned by an old friend, where he works on his paintings in the mornings and restores the house the rest of the day. He blames himself for not protecting Katie, and he blames Angelica Rossi, Katieâs old friend, for introducing her to drugs years before. When Angel, the ownerâs sister, moves into the house, Donovan tries to keep his distance, but her bruises pull at his protective nature. Who would hurt someone so vulnerable?
Angel has no idea why the brooding recluse hates her, but, despite his glares and grunts, she finds his quiet presence comforting, especially amid the fear and confusion of working as a confidential informant.
Their friendship might have a chance to become something more. But if Donovan discovers what Angel's up to, heâll not only end their budding romance, but heâll destroy her shot at freedom forever.
