NYC summer days are hot. Nights are even hotter ...Not much has stirred Detective Jake Lowell's interest since a perp put a bullet in his shoulder, killed his partner, then walked on a technicality. Until a sexy waitress at a tiny neighborhood café catches his eye.

Working show more two jobs, Brianne Nelson never expected to do more than fantasize about Mr. Tall, Tanned & Gorgeous. But when her new private PT client turns out to be the man who fuels her fantasies, she realizes she's going to be seeing a lot more of him—in the flesh—than she bargained for.
It's not long before skin-on-skin contact turns into a hot summer fling. But the killer Jake is after isn't going down without a fight, and more than their hearts could get caught in the crossfire ...
