A fake marriage. A real fire. One last secret.

Damian Osprey spent years in intelligence, where secrets were currency and trust was a liability. Taking a job as head of security at a remote research facility brings him back to the land he once called home. It should be routine—but the facility sits at the center of a pattern he can't ignore, and every answer leads to darker questions.

Stella Osprey has never stopped watching his back. Their marriage began as part of an undercover operation, but the fire between them was never pretend. When Damian finally catches the woman who's been moving just out of reach, the heat ignites fast and fierce—but a conspiracy buried in the wilderness could cost them everything.
