Whatever it takes. As long as it takes.

Jinx exists only in Guardian Security's Shadow World and is one of the deadliest assassins in the world. But behind the missions lies a man with a rare gift: his deep connection with animals. His secret missions are usually straightforward—remove the monsters he's assigned to eliminate. But everything changes when he meets Eira Isaacson, a woman who seems to share his unique ability.

Jinx is drawn to Eira on a mission where he is assigned to take out a dangerous cartel leader. Their connection is immediate and strong, but as soon as his target is eliminated, Jinx vanishes, leaving Eira without a word. Two years later, their paths cross again, only this time, Eira is not alone—she has a child, a boy who looks disturbingly like Jinx.

Eira is fiercely independent, strong-willed, and determined to protect her son from the dangerous world Jinx inhabits. She wants nothing to do with the cartel—or with Jinx. But fate has other plans, and as the past catches up with them, Jinx must decide whether he’s willing to fight for the family he never knew he had or walk back into the shadows.

From the USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author of The Kings of Guardian, Guardian Defenders, and Guardian Security Shadow World comes the next chapter in the epic Guardian Security Dynasty saga. Prepare for action, suspense, and a love that will change everything.
