Only when he joins the national volleyball team, old secrets get a little difficult to keep. Felix and Leo have met before. They have history. It's complicated.

I shoved him back against the couch, momentarily catching him off guard. His eyes drifted down to my lips and I knew that without his processors, he couldn't hear me but that didn't stop me from muttering, "shit." Shit because that selfish asshole persona he typically wore was crumbling in real time; shit because I was finally getting a real look at who he was behind that badge he wore like armor; shit because the more glimpses I got, the more I was starting to like what I was seeing. And that realization was more terrifying than anything else. ... Twenty-six-year-old former mafia second-in-command Enrico Herrera grew up surrounded by violence. After two years away from it all, he thought he had left mafia life behind until he crossed paths with corrupt police detective Von Rutherford. Twenty-five-year-old Von Rutherford didn't play fair. A corrupt cop whose goal was to bring down crime lords and trafficking rings no matter the consequences, it was no surprise when he turned his sights on a secret society known for crime in the area. The problem was getting close enough to gather enough evidence which was where Enrico came in. Blackmailed into helping Von with his case, Enrico was dragged back into the mafia underworld. His goal was to get out of Von's clutches as soon as possible; however, the more time he spends with the cunning, relentless detective, the more he sees past Von's badge and the harder it becomes to separate duty from desire.

Twenty-two-year-old Cornelio Raymond felt like his life had stalled before it had even begun. Six months after graduating from college, he was still spending every day working at his uncle's restaurant, trapped in the same routine and desperate for something, anything, to change. So when he jokingly asked the universe for a sign, he never expected it to answer in the form of Ian Hammer. At twenty-one, Ian was homeless, guarded, and used to surviving alone. Accepting help from a stranger went against every instinct he had, but with a storm rolling in and nowhere else to go, he reluctantly agreed to stay at Cornelio's apartment for a few nights. It was meant to be a simple, short-term arrangement until something neither of them expected got involved: feelings.
