Chuck Tanaka is sure his edge in the military is gone; being
captured and brutally tortured has a way of taking one's
confidence and destroying the larger than life feeling.
Chuck's commander has other ideas regarding Chuck's ability
to perform. Reluctantly Chuck goes undercover as a Black
Jack dealer on a pleasure cruise ship to gain information on
a possible terrorist cell by using Jolynn Taylor, the
daughter of the mob boss/owner, as a mark. Chuck doesn't
take in to account the fiery redhead and the package she
represents until it's too late. With danger lurking around
every corner, keeping Jolynn safe means keeping her close
and risking his cover. Regardless, Chuck has a job to
do, but what will is cost him this time? Hopefully, Chuck
can stay on point and keep his libido and heart locked
firmly away.
Jolynn Taylor has spent most of her adult life staying away
from her mob boss father and his shady dealings, but when he
falls ill, Jolynn has no choice but to return to her
father's turf, a pleasure cruise ship, meant for fun and
sun. Jolynn is immediately attracted to Charles Tomas, a
new Black Jack dealer; his sweet smile and endearing dimples
attract her like no other man has is quite some time. Just
this once Jolynn wants to let her guard down and throw
caution to the wind and enjoy herself and the hunky Black
Jack dealer but unfortunately it is never meant to be. An
attempt on her life and a betrayal that runs too deep scares
her enough to run. Thankfully a very unlikely protector
helps Jolynn stay safe but can she keep her heart safe as
well?
