Ace Osprey was born to fly-but a crash stole his wings and left him with scars he refuses to show. Grounded and restless, the former Navy pilot masks his broken pieces with charm and swagger. He swore he'd never get tied down again, but when Dr. May Smirnov walks into Knife's Edge with secrets in her eyes and fire in her heart, Ace finds himself pulled into a storm he can't outmaneuver. May came to Knife's Edge to hide, not to burn. The small-town doctor keeps her past locked away, but Ace Osprey is a temptation she can't ignore-infuriating, magnetic, and far too good at peeling away her walls. Their chemistry is combustible, but in a town where women are turning up dead under the endless summer sun, desire might be as dangerous as the killer stalking the shadows. When May becomes the next target, Ace has no choice but to fight for more than just survival.

Protecting her means risking his heart-and the closer they get, the more certain he is that she's the one thing he can't afford to lose. In Knife's Edge, love isn't safe¿but some passions are worth the danger.
