Detective Cole Banner has spent years living in the shadows.
As one of Harris County's top VICE detectives, he's learned that trust gets people killed and feelings are a liability he can't afford. When a human trafficking investigation leads across the border into Mexico, Cole is tasked with infiltrating one of the most dangerous organizations in the region.
The problem?
His new partner.
Officer Riley Sloan is everything he doesn't want and everything he can't seem to ignore.
Forced to pose as lovers while navigating a deadly undercover operation, Cole and Riley find themselves drawn deeper into a world where every smile is a lie, every wrong move could be their last, and innocent women disappear without a trace.
When Riley gains the trust of a trafficking kingpin and uncovers proof that the missing girls are still alive, the mission becomes personal.
As danger closes in and the lines between duty and desire begin to blur, Cole must decide what he's willing to sacrifice.
The case.
His badge.
Or the woman who has somehow become impossible to lose.
Because in VICE, loyalty is currency.
And love is the most dangerous risk of all.
