Cruel Ice

The sins of the father…are coming back to wreck his world.

Make no mistake, Declan Flynn is not a good man. He’s never claimed to be. He’s rich, powerful, dangerous…and, apparently, on someone’s kill list. When he wakes up one night, tied to a chair in a dank basement, Declan is certainly less than pleased—and in a killing mood of his own. Then she appears. His most unlikely savior.
Marley Jones never expected to be the guardian angel to a man most people consider the devil.
But fate is often funny, and she’s in the wrong place at the right time in order to save one very ungrateful and gorgeous billionaire. She’s a low-rent PI, he’s crime royalty (if you believe the gossip) and she may have just stumbled onto the first big case of her career. Now her job is to protect her new client—and in order to do that, she plans to stick to Declan like glue. He’d better get used to having her around. Intimately close.
First, he could have saved himself. Second, there is no way that Declan ever intends to let Marley go.
Good things—and people—don’t come into Declan’s life often. And when Marley inserts herself into what will obviously become one very bloody battle, the only thing he can do is protect her…even as Marley mistakenly thinks she is protecting him. By saving him, Marley put a target on her delicate back, and he intends to make sure that no one so much as touches a hair on her head. He also intends to claim the brave and fierce woman who calls to a dark and savage hunger that he’s buried deep inside.

But an enemy wants vengeance, and he doesn’t care about the collateral damage.
Someone wants Declan to suffer. To pay for the crimes his father committed. To unmask the predator who is now hunting both Declan and Marley, they will have to face the hell of Declan’s past. Monsters aren’t born. They’re made. Declan was made into a monster long ago, and this beast will do anything to protect the angel that slipped into his world.
Try to take her from him? He will show you hell on earth.

Author’s Note: Some cases are never truly closed, and when it comes to Declan Flynn’s past—the nightmare is not even close to over. The Ice Breakers are returning to solve a very cold case, and new Ice Breaker recruit Marley Jones is about to find herself the target of a vicious killer…even as she becomes the obsession of a man who has known very little that is good in his life. A cold case, a hot romance, and a hero who knows all about being bad are waiting in CRUEL ICE.
