NEVER GET IN THE WAY OF A MISSION

The job was supposed to be easy–hand–deliver some legal papers to billionaire philanthropist Harry Van Dorn's extravagant yacht, get his signature and be done. But Manhattan lawyer Genevieve Spenser soon realises that the publicly benevolent playboy has a sick, vicious side. As he tries to make her his plaything for the evening, eager to use and abuse her until he discards her with the rest of the victims, Genevieve must keep her wits if she intends to survive.

But there's someone else on the ship who knows the true depths of Van's evil. Peter Jensen is far more than the unassuming personal assistant he pretends to be–he's a secret operative who will stop at nothing to ensure Harry's deadly 'Rule of Seven' terror campaign dies with him. But Genevieve's presence has thrown a wrench into his plans, and now he must decide whether to risk his mission to keep her alive

In the wake of a failed love affair, brainy beauty Jilly Lovitz takes off for Tokyo. She's expecting to cry on her sister's shoulder, then spend a couple of months blowing off steam in Japan. Instead, she's snatched away on the back of a motorcycle, narrowly missing an execution attempt meant for her sister and brother–in–law.

Her rescuer is agent Reno. They'd met once before and the attraction was odd–tattooed Yakuza punk meets leggy California egghead. Now Reno and Jilly are pawns in a deadly tangle of assassination attempts, kidnappings and prisoner swaps that could put their steamy partnership on ice.

The priceless relic is about to ignite a global power struggle that must be stopped at all costs. It's a desperate situation, and international operative Takashi O'Brien has received his directive: everybody is expendable. Everybody. Especially the woman who is getting dangerously under his skin as the lethal game crosses the Pacific to the remote and beautiful mountains of Japan, where the truth can be as seductive as it is deadly...
