To honor a fallen brother's last wish, retired special forces legend Cole Slade—codenamed “Reaper”—assumes a lowly identity as a security guard to protect the brother's sister, Victoria Kingsley. When Victoria’s wedding day erupts into chaos and corporate conspiracy, the runaway groom forces her into a desperate, fake marriage with Cole. Thrust into a lethal battle for control of her family's tech empire, Cole's deadly skills are unmasked as they confront the ruthless ambition of Tristan and the shocking betrayal of Victoria's own uncle. As a bloodstained dog tag reveals the truth behind his friend's death, Cole must wage a war on two fronts—against corporate enemies and his own violent past—to protect a marriage built on a lie, and the woman who became his unexpected mission.
