Ever since he rescued her from a dangerous kidnapper, Mystery Mullins has wanted Axel Dillon. When he returned her to her Hollywood father and tabloid life, she was grateful…and a little in love. Mystery wasn’t ready to let Axel go, even after the soldier gently turned her away because, at nineteen, she was too young.
Now, six years later, Mystery is grown, with a flourishing career and a full life—but she’s still stuck on Axel. Disguised, she propositions him in a bar, and the night they spend together is beyond her wildest dreams. Mystery steels herself to walk away—except the sheets are barely cold when her past comes back to haunt her.
Once he realizes Mystery isn’t the stranger he thought, Axel is incensed and intrigued. But when it’s clear she’s in danger, he doesn’t hesitate to become her protector—and her lover—again. And as the two uncover a secret someone is willing to kill for, Axel is determined to claim Mystery’s heart before a murderer silences her for good.

Mystery,
You grew up Hollywood, beautiful, famous. I was a poor kid from rural Tennessee. We first met after you’d been abducted, and you cast me as the role of hero just for doing my job. We shared a moment… But wrong time, wrong place, wrong circumstances, so we went back to our different worlds. That should have been the end of us. But you haunted me. Through the years and jobs and women that always came and went, you remained a constant in my head. Now you’re back, sexy, determined, and as mysterious as your name. You’ve found your path in life. I’m still trying to figure out why, even when I’m not alone, I feel that way. When I look at you, princess, I know the reason. You are unforgettable. You make me a better man. You are meant for me. And I will always be wicked for you.
Love,
Axel
