Shep

Being a contract killer for the mafia is easy. Take out the scumbag. Collect the cash. Go back to my uncomplicated life of solitude in the mountains.

What I'm not prepared for is my next target. She's as innocent as I am sullied, and while most men cower in my presence, she stands up to me with enough sass and courage to stop me in my tracks.

I have a decision to make. Carry out the contract and become as ruthless as the men I work for, or defy their orders and live with a target on my back.

Which leaves me with one hell of an inconvenient problem. What do I do with the gorgeous woman tied up in my truck?

My brother once kept me safe from every horror in the world. Now, he's betrayed dangerous people and left me to deal with the blowback. The mafia takes no prisoners, and I'm a loose end that needs eliminating.

The mob's lethal hitman comes for me in the night, and even though I fight him tooth and nail, I'm no match for the grumpy wall of muscle.

When he takes me to his isolated cabin and lays out his unexpected plans, I'm forced to accept two disturbing truths.

Sometimes, the villain is the only one who can protect you.

And I'm falling for a hitman.

The Hit is an enemies-to-lovers romance featuring a grumpy mafia hitman hero, the sunshine mechanic he's sworn to protect, touch her and you die vibes, and forced proximity.

Includes The Rescue, a spicy holiday Team Zulu novella.
