When his lover is killed while they're on a job, Kegan goes into seclusion, vowing never to return to the Agency, the covert organization they worked for. His handler has other ideas, tricking Kegan into coming back, then partnering him with Gage to find and eliminate Ash, a rogue operative.<br><br>Kegan and Gage locate Ash only to discover he's on the run because he found out that Patterson, the head of the Agency, is not what he seems.

“I think it’s what they call a shotgun,” Ash commented. “Because you can shoot a bullet from the front doorway and it’ll go out the back door without hitting anything.”


Behind the house was a small yard with a garage that they could get to from the alley.


It came furnished—sort of. There was a king size bed, a sofa, a table and four chairs. The kitchen was decent, with a fair amount of cupboard space. The bathroom had a tub with a shower. “But no curtain,” Ash was quick to point out.


“We’ll have to go shopping,” Kegan agreed. “Let’s make a list.”


By the time they finished, the list included dishes, pots and pans, linens, towels, the shower curtain, and food.


“Thank God we have a truck,” Gage muttered as they headed to a big box store where they could get everything in one stop.
