About this ebook
Las Vegas limousine driver Micah Donovan prides himself on his discretion. Regardless of what transpires in the back of his car every night, he keeps his eyes on the road and his heart so far away he can no longer reach it.
But when the son of an imprisoned gangster requests a beautiful young dancer be delivered to his door, Micah is unable to turn a deaf ear, and he rescues Katelyn just before the man can hurt her. Together they flee into the night, with a sinister enforcer pursuing them.
Micah's carefully crafted life, so far free of impediment and incident, breaks apart in his hands. He has only Katelyn to keep him standing—a woman he hardly knows yet is unable to resist.
Can the two find common ground and keep themselves alive?
