Legendary assassin Lucien Cross has never failed a mission—until a loud, sharp-tongued pastry chef crashes into his crosshairs.
Milo Hart is fearless, stubborn, and completely unimpressed by dangerous men. After accidentally becoming the only witness to Lucien's assignment, Milo should have disappeared. Instead, Lucien walks away from his deadly organization to protect the one person who isn't afraid to yell at him.
As former allies hunt them across the city, Lucien hides his bloody past behind a quiet flower shop while Milo keeps dragging him into ordinary life with cakes, arguments, and relentless affection. Every gunfight is followed by another lecture. Every near-death escape somehow ends with another date.
But the assassin's past refuses to stay buried. When the secret organization known as The Chapel targets Milo, Lucien must choose between becoming the ruthless killer they created—or the husband Milo believes he can be.
Packed with explosive action, hilarious banter, slow-burn romance, fake domestic peace, and heart-pounding devotion, this BL action romance proves that even the world's deadliest assassin is powerless against one furious husband.
Because surviving bullets is easy.
Surviving Milo's scolding? That's the impossible mission.
