When she was a child, Tavi's family was taken from her by a serial killer that was never caught. As an adult, she puts on the appearance of normalcy while burying herself in law enforcement as a detective. All her private energy is spent trying to find answers to what happened to her family...and preparing herself for the day she intends to exact revenge from the culprit. Jericho is just as much of a predator as Tavi is. He's caught the scent of old prey - a serial killer, one he's been a step behind all along. Discovering who the next victim is surprises him. Tavi is clearly a detective who gets her man - every time. The tug-of-war is on. She wants nothing to do with him; all he can think about is her. She doesn't want or need his protection; he can't leave her alone to save his life. Sparks fly between them the first time they meet, the last, and all the times in-between. Two hunters converge, set to follow their prey into the abyss if need be - right where he can take out two enemies for the price of one. He's cleaning up. Turning a new leaf. And wants no one left alive who can stop him...
