Only walking away isn't an option for Royal. Not this time. Because there is something about dancer Violet Murphy that calls to him. A driving primitive pull. Royal finds that he can't stay away from her. Scratch that-he doesn't </span><em style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>want </em><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>to be away from Violet. What he does want? </span><em style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Her. </em></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Determined fierce and unwilling to give in to the fear that he sees in her eyes Violet slides right past Royal's guard.

Somewhere in the hot Savannah night the killer still lurks. Royal intends to protect Violet and take out his prey. But Violet has uncovered the dark truth about Royal and instead of being repelled she's determined to be at his side in order to get the justice she seeks. Being a victim again? </span><em style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Not </em><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>on her agenda thanks.</span></p><p><strong style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>An unlikely alliance.

But then again he's all of those things too. When he discovers Violet his entire world shifts focus. She matches him she scares him and...she just damn well might complete him. But in order to have a life with Violet Royal has to first hunt down and stop the man who abducted her-and killed three other women. Lucky for Royal he's not hunting alone. The Ice Breakers are back. Passion twists and hot romance are coming your way.</span></p>
