When an ex-CIA agent and a young widow connect, a new world opens up for them both.
But so does a world of secrets.
After the death of her husband, Katharine Kiki Conrad moves back to her hometown of Pasadena, California with the intent of starting a new life. With her trusty French Bulldog, Stanley, by her side, Kiki buys on old fixer-upper and has big dreams of turning the home into a bed and breakfast. Unfortunately, the old home, known as Agua de la Vida, is more work than she anticipated. When a sexy contractor gives her an estimate to restore the place, Kiki is in a quandary - she is attracted to the blond, blue-eyed hunk, but repelled by the money he estimates a restoration of the house will eat up.
What's a girl to do?
Trace Rocklin is that sexy contractor. Or, at least, that's what he pretends he is. The truth is that Trace was a CIA assassin, now returning to his hometown to try and forget that part of his life. But trouble follows him, even as he falls for the owner of a derelict old house. Soon, Kiki is in danger and Trace is drawn back into the world of intrigue he's trying so hard to forget. In order to save Kiki, and himself, he must temporarily return to that job - he must become that assassin again. But in that hour of surrender, when Trace's guard is down completely, will his secret past destroy his relationship with Kiki once and for all?
It's a flirty, fun adventure with a hint of danger in Pasadena, California as Kiki and Trace fall in love, and Trace must reconcile the deadly part of his past once and for all.
