Sensual overload can be a tactical disadvantage. Devlin Grace's experience with child exploitation cases lands him a new assignment with the Special Crimes Investigators unit of the Federal Justice Agency, plus a new partner who could make the job tougher than expected. Conr Hutchens possesses incredible, scientifically enhanced senses...and zero social skills. Word on the street is that his last partner left under a cloud-and it was Conr's fault. Conr blames himself for losing his previous partner, and wants to do right by his new one. But Devlin confuses and frustrates him, and he struggles to cope with Devlin's swift intelligence, quirky humor and teasing sexuality. With the dangerous, perplexing case facing them, there's one Devlin would rather have at his back than Conr. But the longer they work together, the higher the sexual tension rises-until attraction boils over and puts everything at risk. Their careers, the children they're trying to save-and any chance of lasting love. Warning: Violence and n-graphic reference to mutilations. But also snarking, teasing, why-won't-they-get-a-clue syndrome, and kittens in barns.
