β¦ Synopsis
Meta-State spy Jack Reardon believes itβs all been taken care of. He has his verbal agreement with his boss to βkeep Blade happy,β and Jack is more than willing to do his best in that regard. He also has his bargain with Ethan, to keep seeing each other whenever they cross paths. Small victories, interspersed with exploding bombs, smashed cars and miffed co-workers, all while consorting with an international assassin.
Contract killer Ethan Blade values his security, and Jackβs the first time heβs found that with another person. Wiring a warehouse or outback shelter for safety, no problem. Keeping safe a prickly ex-soldier-turned-spy whoβs a magnet for trouble, not so easy. Instead of faceless, nameless jobs, heβs poking his fingers into Jackβs casesβa car bomb gone awry, a Hen party gone wildβmuch to Jackβs mounting dismay.
They have a deal; neither one of them can seem to stick to it. Itβs Jack versus Ethan as the two men learn to navigate their ever-evolving not-a-relationship without losing the benefit of the bargain.
