- Description
FBI Agent Tyler Brennan has never hesitated to cross a line in the name of justice. Rules are flexible. Failure isn’t.
Dr. Rachel Thorne believes lines exist for a reason. The last time she stood her ground against Tyler, sparks flew—and not the good kind.
Now a disturbing incident at a veterans hospital forces them back into each other’s orbit. Rachel is certain a decorated soldier didn’t simply walk away, and she needs someone to listen to her, even if that someone is Tyler Brennan.
As the investigation deepens and the danger closes in, old resentment ignites into something far more dangerous. Because this time, the truth isn’t just buried—it’s protected. And crossing that line could cost them everything.
