214 pages Louis Broward endured it all. He watched two of his best friends sail off into the sunset in marital bliss while his love life sank to the bottom the ocean. He took a chance on a woman he believed would be his forever and was left with a slap in the face. He watched the staples in his life get plucked right out of his pages… and yet he remained. After being acquitted for the killing of his former fiancé’s abusive lover and after clearing out the club at his own welcome home party, Louis was made an offer he couldn’t refuse. He dropped off the face of the earth and into a world where two of his best friends had inhabited for decades. Now, after being trained to become the blood thirsty, flesh hungry assassin his friends once were, Louis has emerged from the shadows of the underworld as Agent Hellhound, one of The Nation’s most trusted and sought-after hitmen to ever clutch a .40. He’s making a list and checking it twice, taking out his targets and leaving them on ice. Louis has sworn off love and nearly forgotten it even existed… until he crosses paths with a close childhood friend he hasn’t seen in decades. Old feelings resurface when he lays eyes on Nariya Sardone for the first time in nearly 20 years, but Louis also realizes Nariya’s now involved in a lifestyle he once could never see her wrapped up in. But duty calls, and when Louis finds himself caught between the crosshairs of Cupid’s arrow and his own lethal crossbow, he finds himself making the hardest decision of his life. Will love truly conquer all? Or will Louis find the already flickering fire in his heart stomped out once again, leaving his heart an indefinitely frozen iceberg?
