Beneath the Surface

Falling in love with your undercover partner? Bad idea. Falling in love while you're both pretending to be a couple in the middle of a dangerous cartel operation? Even worse. Detective Harper thought she had everything under control when she was assigned to work with the enigmatic and maddeningly attractive Nick Russo. Sure, he's tough, focused, and way too good-looking for her sanity, but this is just another job, right? Except...
nothing about this job is normal. The Corvino cartel is more ruthless than they ever imagined, and Harper and Nick are plunged into a high-stakes world where every move is calculated, every word could be their last, and every glance between them sizzles with a tension that's becoming harder to ignore. Their fake relationship is supposed to be just that-an act. But as they get deeper into their cover, Harper realizes that the lines between what's real and what's for show are blurring at a dangerously fast pace.
And then there's Luca Corvino-the cartel heir with a stare that could melt ice and secrets that could destroy them all. Harper's feelings are tangled in a web of deception, loyalty, and undeniable attraction, and the closer she gets to the truth, the harder it is to resist the pull of the man she's supposed to be just pretending with. Can Harper and Nick stay focused long enough to take down the cartel? Or will their fake relationship become the biggest danger of all? Hold on tight-because this isn't just another undercover case.
This is the kind of slow-burn, edge-of-your-seat romance that's impossible to walk away from. Are you ready to dive in?
