    Summary

    He spent his whole life doing the right thing. Until her.
    Told entirely from Elliot’s point of view, this is the story of a man torn between duty and desire, between the family he swore to protect and the partner he finds himself hopelessly in love with.
    After an undercover operation in a nightclub to dismantle a trafficking ring of underage girls, Elliot and Olivia cross a line that can never be uncrossed — and he is forced to face the weight of loving her and losing himself at the same time.
    When a new case uncovers a network of abuse similar to Seaview’s, Elliot becomes determined to protect Olivia — not only as her partner, but as the man who has seen her at her most vulnerable. As they fight for justice, he finds himself caught between his love for her and the sense of duty that defines him.
    Each chapter begins with a confession to a priest and unfolds through Elliot’s actions and turmoil. Though written in third person, the narrative follows only his perspective and how he feels.
    Mature content. Explicit sexual material. There is no violence, but intimacy plays a central role.
