The wrong girl. The right moves. The dirty business deal that ends with a mule and a gun…in the hands of someone Chase least expects.
After spending more than a decade in Afghanistan, Chase is more than happy to start his own business, doing exactly what he loves. A deal goes sour and Chase is left to pick up the pieces. Luckily, his military buddy, Carson, is more than happy to assume the role. Ignoring his broken heart, Chase motors on, hiring a lovely young assistant named Summer, who turns out to be something Chase would never have guessed.
Working with her uncle for countless schooling years was a perfect move for Summer, but when her uncle sells on retirement, Summer finds herself being turned away by potential employers, citing her lack of professional experience as an excuse for giving her a chance. But when Chase, a man opening a gun business, throws her an olive branch, she is over the moon. The small town catches wind of Summer’s new position, and she finds herself sullying a long-distance relationship inadvertently.
A horrifying incident in the office threatens Summer’s new career, causing Chase to wonder if his past has come back to haunt him, after all. And when Chase’s hand is finally dealt to him, he learns who the traitor is…seconds too late.
