No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
Beto Hernandezβs objective: Break the human trafficking ring plaguing Skagit once and for all. Heβs not in Skagit to make friendsβhis kicking ass first and taking names later. Maybe. He crosses paths with an intriguing and sexy man, the first man in years to spark Betoβs interest. Itβs ultimate bad timing, though; no one in Skagit can be trusted.
Who is Carsten Quinn, and where does he fit in Betoβs investigation? Beto tries to stay away from Carsten but their undeniable chemistry keeps him close.
Carsten Quinn survived years in hell to return to βnormal life,β and he his own mission in Skagit. The only problem is heβs hiding, not living anything like a normal life. When his closest friend is severely injured itβs up to Carsten to finish gathering evidence to put some very bad people behind bars and he knows all too well he canβt trust anyone, especially not the law.
Ironically, the law appears anyway, in the form of a sexy cop he canβt stop thinking about; when Carstenβs past comes back with a vengeance, he has no one else to turn to.
Is happiness too much to hope for? Are Beto and Carsten too different and too broken to trust anyone, much less each other?
