Just one last job, he said.
It will be easy money, he said.
You don’t even have to do the dirty work.

I worked for Victor Salazar for years. He’s an exceptional liar and a master manipulator, so I should have known that every word that came out of his mouth was horse crap. After I spent four years in prison because of a job I did for him, I swore to myself that I would never get involved with him again.
But then he offers me a deal so sweet I can’t refuse. He’ll clear my debt, pay me enough to start over, and all I have to do is get close to a girl, get some information, and get out. Sounds simple, right?

Wrong!

Katelyn Akiyama isn’t just some girl. She’s sharp, kind, and way too good for someone like me. The closer I get, the harder it is to remind myself this is just a job. But Victor doesn’t forgive mistakes, and he doesn’t take no for an answer.

Now, I’m trapped between the only girl I’ve ever cared about and the man who can ruin my life. One wrong move and I could lose everything.

When I made a deal with the devil, I had no idea the price would be so high.
