This should be easy...

Former Navy deep-sea diver turned bounty hunter, Hal Guidry, needs to collar a fugitive now. Not yesterday. Right now.

But inside the New Orleans mansion, he instead finds a woman who fires his blood. A woman who knows only her name. A woman definitely in danger.

As her memory returns, girl-next-door librarian, Annie Swanson, questions how she knows the oh-so-handsome hunk calling himself a friend. Then she discovers he's a bounty hunter like the men who killed her father, and she flees...

...only to be nearly kidnapped...in broad daylight...in the French Quarter.

She runs to Hal with questions and they're both nearly killed in a fiery explosion. Now, he needs answers of his own.

But as the sexual attraction between them heats up, can Annie cast the dice in his favor?

Or will they become victims of the deadly forces intent on keeping secrets?

Hal and his brothers have the skills to keep dangerous criminals off the streets and protect the women they love. They don't need easy.
