He's a methodical treasurer with a warrior's precision. She's a Harbor Patrol officer fighting systematic corruption. When her own department tries to kill her for getting too close to the truth, their alliance ignites into explosive passion. Officer Marina Dupuis has dedicated her life to protecting Louisiana's waterways-until she discovers her own Harbor Patrol unit is taking bribes to protect drug smugglers.
When corrupt officials escalate to attempted murder and her backup abandons her to die, she's forced to seek help from the most dangerous men in Plaquemines Parish. Antoine "Flood" Arceneaux is the Treasurer of the Bayou Serpents MC, a former military logistics specialist who uses his methodical skills to protect vulnerable communities from institutional corruption. When a desperate Harbor Patrol officer calls for help against her own department, it becomes personal.
The last thing he expects is a fierce cop willing to work with outlaws to expose the truth. From the first high-speed rescue, Flood and Marina are drawn together by shared fury and impossible attraction. She's everything he shouldn't want-a law enforcement officer who could expose everything he's built. He's everything she should fear-a man who solves problems with systematic violence instead of legal procedure.
But when Sheriff Claude Hebert's corruption network declares war on honest cops and protected families, Flood and Marina must choose between playing it safe and protecting the innocent. Their battle will take them from midnight boat chases to courthouse infiltrations, testing both their courage and their growing love. In the sultry darkness of post-hurricane Louisiana, two people from opposite sides of the law will risk everything for justice-and each other.
