She's spent four months cozying up to Sgt. at Arms Michael, and it's time to make her move. Michael McCall isn't in the habit of accepting contract hits, but Holly isn't the kind of girl who chases after Dogs. She's petrified, and infatuated, and she might be the first woman to see him for the man he is, rather than the outlaw he seems. Maybe, for Holly, he can become St. Michael at last. After the events of FEARLESS, the Lean Dogs can't afford any more scandals. Michael never expected he'd be the one to bend the rules. And no one thought his feelings for one woman could shake the balance of the Tennessee underworld.

It's summer in Knoxville, and if the outlaw crew at Dartmoor Inc. thought they were getting a respite from the drama...they were kidding themselves. Almost a year ago, Mercy's dying mother claimed he had a half-brother, sired by the beloved father he'd always thought infallible, raised by another man as his own. He's been in denial ever since, but when Colin O'Donnell arrives, it's time to face facts. Turns out his family isn't lost - he only wishes this member of it was. Holly McCall is determined to prove her worth to the other old ladies - Maggie, specifically. She never dreamed of a life like this, and as she searches for self-worth and acceptance, she is wrapped step-by-step in the gentlest love of the fiercest man.

Mary Cranson had done the walk many times before, but now had simply vanished from Dartmoor near the prominent landmark called Haytor. Her boyfriend raises the alarm when she doesn’t meet him as arranged in the local pub. For the investigating officer, Detective Inspector Richard King, the intriguing aspect is that many of her friends knew she would be on the moor as she had told them of her intentions the previous evening. King and his small team of detectives begin the arduous task of interviewing the people who would have known her whereabouts that fateful afternoon. Could she have been consumed by one of the notorious bogs on the moor or is the reason for her disappearance something more sinister? The detectives are also dealing with thefts of vehicles and machinery, mainly from farms across Dartmoor. These have continued undetected for over six months and questions are being asked in the local media about the lack of progress in catching the thieves. The profile of these cases increases significantly when a theft goes disastrously wrong. King is also made aware of a barn fire close to Haytor, but is this connected to the other cases? Pressure is mounting on the wily detective from the chief constable who wants progress on both the thefts and the missing woman.
