Billy "the Kid" Blake is spending Christmas alone. Last year he spent it with Olivia Reese, the woman he planned to share all his Christmases with from that moment on. But Olivia walked out on him when he was away on a mission, and Billy hasn't seen her since. Until she shows up on his property during a snowstorm barefoot, freezing, and begging for his help. His first instinct is to kick her out. His second is to drag her into his arms. Since he won't do either of those things, the only option left is to help her.

When Olivia stumbles onto evidence of a dangerous conspiracy right before Christmas, there's only one man she can call for help. Billy is a member of the elite Hostile Operations Team and he has the black ops skills she needs to uncover the truth. But their relationship didn't end on a good note. That's Olivia's fault because her insecurities drove her to leave without an explanation. Still, he didn't come looking for her--which told her all she needed to know about his feelings.

Now, with time running out and danger closing in, Billy and Olivia have to work together to stop a lethal plot. But Olivia won't fall for Billy again. Her heart can't take it. Nevertheless, working with him reignites the explosive passion between them. Just when Olivia thinks there may be another chance for them, a deadly foe is intent on ripping them apart--and silencing them forever.

"...one of those must read black ops series that is as good as Maya Banks & Cindy Gerard!" -- Just Plain Sassy

"Seriously is there a hotter series out there in this genre? Because if there is, I don't know about it. I have loved these books from book 1 and they are only getting better and better not to mention hotter!!!" -- Goodreads
