    About this audiobook

    A product of his past, Black spends half his time saving lives and the other half taking them. Every day, a hard choice must be made and he's the man to make it. Long ago, he vowed to never love again; one-night stands with a willing body was all he ever needed. But along came Quill, and Black's life is irrevocably changed. He never expects something as simple as Quill's persistence to alter the way he not only sees the world, but how he lives it.

    Quill has bad taste in men and equally horrible luck. Growing up wasn't easy, surviving is even harder. When his past and present collide, he's convinced he'll finally witness his own destruction. But when an unlikely antihero steps in to protect him, his life is turned on its head. He's spent months flirting with the man of his dreams and hoping he'd take notice. But it turns out, being on Black's radar isn't all it's cracked up to be, and his idea of protection varies greatly from Quill's.

    Unknowingly sharing the same goal-burying their own pasts deeper than the fires of hell can reach-they're both unaware that jumping into that fire will do more than ignite their feelings, it could lead to their own demise.

    Contains mature themes.

      Loving this series off books ????
      Carry on Awesome Author Davidson King
    • 3/5
      This was not my favorite HH book. I thought the MCs sperate were strong MCs, but together? I wasn't feeling the chemistry between them. I also feel Quill made Black dumb. It fell flat for me. Black kept telling people right off the bat he was the leader of an assassin organization over and over again. Like what? Why? It's like rule number one in fight club, you don't talk about fight club! But here Black is just telling everyone. In past books Black is secretive and closed off. Smart. The one everyone looks to. But in his own book it's like he can't help but just tell someone at a large party he's going to kill his son right out in the open. I seriously began to question how Black even stay alive or how he didn't go to jail as long as he has, let alone train all his team. I was not feeling this book at all. I'm glad I read it to proceed the story line but this won't be a re-listen for me.
