Micah Sloane a former Mossad agent became an assassin to
catch the man who murdered his mother and caused the death
of his father, a former CIA agent. Micah joined the Elite
Ops in order to accomplish his goal.
His latest assignment
is to get Risa Clay to accept him as her lover since the
man he's after has been hired to kill her. Risa was once
held captive and raped with her father's permission by a
man she can't remember. They kept her full of drugs but
lately memories are resurfacing and she wants to put the
past behind her hence her decision to take a lover.
She
never counted on someone like Micah. After being told all
of her life how ugly she is, it's no wonder that it is hard
for her to believe Micah could be attracted to her.
Although Micah's agenda is personal there is no way he
cannot have Risa, she brings out feeling he thought were
dead yet he will not give up his vengeance for any reason.
Having been lied to by those she trusted Risa nevertheless
finds herself unable to resist the heat building between
them. With a trained cold hearted killer on their trail
these two burn up the sheets and though there is more than
sex between them it might be impossible for them to forget
the past in order to have a future together.
This reprint
is just as good the second time around. Ms. Leigh's
signature love scenes are hot enough to send her readers
looking for some release of their own. The added benefit
of familiar faces kept me riveted to the pages as I
wondered if there would be a happily ever after for these
two tortured individuals who have experienced more pain
than the average person should have to. You'll cry as Risa
relives her past and root for Micah as he helps heal her
wounds.

SUMMARY
Micah Sloane knows almost everything there is to know about
Risa Clay, including the vicious betrayal she endured years
ago and the distrust she’s harbored ever since. The only way
for the Elite Ops agent to uncover an assassin—and banish
the ghosts of his own dark past—is to use Risa as bait. But
nothing has prepared him for her disarming blend of
innocence and sensuality, or for his overwhelming need to
protect her… Risa has spent six years rebuilding her life. And now, to
save it, she must pose as Micah’s lover and draw a killer
into the open. It’s a risky plan—especially with a man as
powerfully seductive as Micah. But, as their charade becomes
reality, Risa realizes the greatest danger may lie in losing
her heart forever…
