Bounty hunter Jack Dakota thought tracking down a runaway would be an easy payday. But everything changes the instant he encounters the fiery, unpredictable M.J. O’Leary. With quick fists and a stubborn spirit, M.J. turns a routine capture into utter chaos.

Before he can catch his breath, a violent ambush by ruthless killers leaves Jack and M.J. handcuffed together.
