She is on the run. He is on the hunt. Neither is prepared for the pull between them.
Matilda Mattie Thorne has spent nearly two years outrunning the life her billionaire parents designed for her. With a forced engagement looming and a future carved from greed, she hides in the shadows, surviving on grit, luck, and the ability to slip from danger at the last possible moment. The only problem? One man keeps catching up.
Kael Specter, known in the underworld as Ghost, is a mercenary with a flawless record and a single mission left before he can walk away from violence forever. Capture Mattie Thorne. Deliver her home. Collect his payout. Easy--except she's the one target who has escaped him again and again, taunting him with rabbit-eared hoodies and infuriating smiles.
When Ghost finally corners Mattie in the freezing wilds of Washington, he expects to drag her back to the people who hired him. Instead, he finds a terrified woman with a truth that makes his blood run cold. Mattie isn't rebelling. She's running from something monstrous. And the people who want her returned aren't parents--they're predators.
Suddenly the world's most efficient hunter becomes her fiercest protector. To survive, they must stage a con that places Mattie back in the centre of danger and forces Kael to play the role he hates most: her captor. But the longer they pretend, the more the line between act and attraction dissolves, and the gruff mercenary finds himself falling for the sharp-tongued, impossible woman he once called prey.
Love OP is Book Five in the Love and Other Jobs series, a dark, delicious romance featuring rivals-to-lovers tension, forced proximity, cat-and-mouse chemistry, and a mercenary who would burn the world to save his Bunny.
