Rain slicks the cobblestones of Los Angeles as Special Ops Agent Ronan Wiles leads his team up the colossal building. Guns cocked, steps light, they scale the structure to apprehend Jason Decks in apartment 231. Waiting in the shadows, Ronan hears footsteps—not the target’s, but a woman’s. He peeks out, breath hitching at the sight of a breathtaking brunette with grocery bags, heels clacking like gunshots. Realizing she’s the unsuspecting victim, he signals his men to hold. Tossing his rifle, Ronan lunges, yanking her arm and clamping a palm over her lips to silence her scream. He drags her to the corridor, surrounded by masked operatives, saving her life before she even knows the danger lurking in her own home.
