Two years ago, Henley gave up his life and transferred to a new city, creating a persona where he could finally be himself. But after going through more than a dozen submissives, he is bored and looking for a good time. He' s not asking for much— just a man twice his size who he can take down before making him beg.

Unfortunately, Henley is also an undercover agent who is stuck guarding a rich kid with a drug problem.

Stumbling home after a long shift, Henley runs into Li. Li is just a civilian, but he draws Henley in like no other has before. A spark ignites between them that can' t help but smolder. Li doesn' t seem to know the first thing about kink, but Henley has never been more satisfied or enthralled.

But Henley' s life is a lie— and he' s not the only one. When a bullet goes through his charge' s forehead in the middle of his shift, Henley finds himself on a chase that spans continents. The only way he can be with Li is if he ignores his conscience and gives up everything he' s ever stood for.
