Blurb:
When these two agents are under fire, theyโll have to reconsider everything they know…
Werewolf Harley Grant isnโt exactly comfortable with her inner wolf. Even though sheโs on a STAT team where she can use her abilities openly, she refuses to do so, putting herselfโand sometimes her teammatesโat risk.
Alpha werewolf Sawyer Bishop would give anything for his MI6 team to know about his inner wolf, but his teammates are mistrustful of anyone or anything with inhuman abilities. When he meets Harley on an overlapping case and realizes sheโs a fellow wolf, heโs more than a little intrigued.
Now that STAT and MI6 have to team up to stop a crew of supernatural bad guys intent on causing a nuclear meltdown, Harley can no longer deny her wolf and Sawyer can no longer hide his. As they grow closer to resolving the case and grow closer to each other, they discover things arenโt what they seem and revenge could cost them their lives.

Excerpt:
Harley caught a glimpse of someone out of the corner of her eye that made her snap her head around, but she didnโt see anyone.ย Sureย sheโd seen something, she skirted the outside of the dance floor in that direction. She was starting to question herself again when she spotted a tall, attractive guy with broad shoulders, casually disheveled brown hair, and scruff on his square jaw. He was circling the dancers on the floor in much the same way Harley was but in the opposite direction, keeping pace with her so they stayed exactly opposite each other.ย
Yeah, like thatโs a coincidence.ย
A little voice in the back of her head told her to get on the radio and call Caleb and the rest of her teammates, but she ignored it, too mesmerized by the handsome man across the room from her. Every few seconds, piercing blue eyes locked with hers, making something inside herโmaybe her inner wolfโfeel a sensation she didnโt recognize.ย
Even if she hadnโt picked up on the scent, Harley would have known he was a werewolf from the graceful, animalistic way he moved.ย
He was a predator, no doubt about it.ย
Was he a kidnapper as well?ย
She wanted to say heโd never do anything like that, which was an asinine thing to consider about a man sheโd never met.ย
Tired of stalking in circles, Harley stopped, turning carefully to keep her eyes on the big werewolf as he moved closer. She wasnโt sure, but for a brief moment, she thought she caught sight of what might have been a smile tugging at his sensuous mouth. The other werewolfโanย
alpha most definitelyโstrode past the last few people separating them and came to a halt a few feet away. Harley couldnโt ignore that the man in front of her was possibly the most gorgeous guy sheโd ever seen.ย
Which pretty much guaranteed he was one of the bad guys.ย
Because that was how her luck worked out when it came toย theโฏ oppositeย sex.ย
Harley took a single step forward and felt a tingle in her stomachย
when he did the same, that dangerous smile showing up again. She took another fewย stepsย toward him when his head whipped to the side. She looked that way, too, trying to see what had attracted his attention, and caught sight of two men slipping behind a black velvet curtain covering a section of the far wall. The second guy cast a furtive glance over his shoulder before disappearing.ย
That isnโt suspicious at all.ย
She turned back to the alpha werewolf, but he was already stridingย
in that direction. She quickly followed, knowing she should call the rest of the team, but once again, her instincts insisted she hold off. By the time she slipped behind the curtain, all she saw was another set of stairs. The mysterious werewolf was nowhere to be found.ย
She paused long enough to slide a hand under her dress and pull the small frame Glock 9mm from the tiny holster strapped to her upper thigh, chambering a round as she startedย down the steps, rather proud of how comfortably she handled a loaded weapon. Considering that before joining STAT sheโd never even held a gun, she thought she was doing rather well.ย
From down below, she heard the rhythmic sound of rapid footstepsย along with the soft murmur of voices but no music or partying people or anything else to make her think this was a part of the dance club open to the public. Whatever the hell those two guys had come down here for, it probably wasnโt on the up-and-up.ย
Lit only by three low-watt bulbs mounted in cobweb-covered fixtures hanging from the rough stone ceiling, the room at the bottom of the steps was filled with crates, racks of empty bottles, and bags of trash. The dim glow was barely enough to throw shadows, but Harley didnโt need a lot of light to see the werewolf standing a few feet away, his broad back to her, a pistol down at his side.ย
โYou always bring a gun when you go to a nightclub?โ he asked without looking at her.ย
His voice was as deep as sheโd imagined it would be, a little rough with a hint of a British accent, like heโd traveled extensively for much of his life and lost a bit of the distinctive sound over time.ย
โA girl has to be careful these days,โ Harley said, smiling even though she was standing in the middle of a filthy storage room twenty feet underground with an alpha werewolf whoโd probably lured her down here with kidnapping in mindโor worse. โIโve heard big cities can be dangerous.โย
The man turned to look at her, blue eyes piercing even in the dimness as they slid up and down her body. โIf you think it might be dangerous, why come to Paris? And all the way fromย America, ifย Iโm not mistaking the accent.โย
The Britโs perfectly sculpted nose lifted a little, his nostrils flaringย
the slightest bit, like he was trying to take in a scent he found tantalizing. Harley knew he was picking up her pheromones and couldnโt help wondering what she smelled like to him.ย
Did he like her scent?ย
Did she care if he did?ย
โYou know the song โGirls Just Want to Have Fun,โ right?โ She approached him slowly, glancing around and trying to figure out where the other two men had gone. โMaybe visiting potentially dangerous places is how I have fun.โย
โStrange hobby,โ he said, his voice dropping down an octave to practically make her tummy vibrateโฆas well as regions a bit farther south. โI prefer reading, but whatever. You do you.โย
Harley lifted a brow, lowering her gun to a safe position. โIs that what youโre doing down in this dank, dark room?โ She stepped to the side a little, making him circle to the right as they resumed the little dance theyโd done upstairs. โLooking for a good book?โย
He snorted, coming to a stop again a few feet away. โWe both know thatโs not what Iโm doing down hereย any moreย than youโre here looking for some fun. So, as entertaining as this banter is, I think itโs time we get on with what really brought us here.โย
Harley was almost disappointed but knew the man was right. While sheโd enjoyed their verbal jousting, she was here for more important things.ย
