Cold War ... Hot Spies. It’s the 1960’s. Unbeknownst to the world, a secret international organization is working behind the scenes for world peace. Nikoloz, a Russian agent, has his doubts about his American partner, Vincent. The man is his exact opposite: hot-tempered, impulsive, and an incorrigible playboy. Will they form an effective team? Their latest mission: find and destroy a secret laboratory producing a new gas weapon. A small town has already been used as a testing site. Will Nikoloz and Vincent be able to locate the lab in time to protect more innocent lives? Can they get in and destroy the gas without getting caught? And can they resist the attraction they feel for one another?

Nikoloz raised one of his own eyebrows in reply. “Just because you cannot keep your libido in check does not mean that I have a similar lack of control.”


“You really are a walking computer, aren’t you?”

Vincent groaned and tossed the journal back. “I give up! I can’t even get a decent rise out of you.”


Nikoloz snagged the journal before it hit the sand. “I do not understand why you would want to start an argument, my friend. Can we not just relax and enjoy the time off?”

Nikoloz pretended to read, but watched his partner from the corners of his eyes.
