Fatal Exposure

A killer's on the loose. And she may be his next target.

FBI Agent Rico Tonoeli has unfinished business—a cold case that's suddenly heating up. A brutal serial killer has returned, and the trail leads straight to a local beauty pageant founded by supermodel Daniella Fairbanks. The catch? Dani is his best friend's sister—and the woman he's never been able to forget.

For Daniella, coming home was supposed to be a quiet retreat. But ghosts from her past, a mounting body count, and Rico's intense presence make staying under the radar impossible. As danger closes in, Dani and Rico must work together to unravel a deadly mystery—and confront the sizzling tension that's been years in the making.

When desire collides with danger, will love be the price they pay?
