Deviant

By Joe Satoria

Two assassins. One Daddy. Zero chance this brat behaves.

Fresh off his revenge vendetta, Artemis arrives at Sanctum-a Brooklyn safe house for assassins-looking for training. What he finds is Donovan: forty, scarred, resistant to attachment, and his ex-situationship from months ago.

The man who vanished in the night, leaving only a bag of cash and no explanation.

Artemis wanted anyone but Donovan. He definitely didn't want to remember the way that man touched him, controlled him, made him feel safe for the first time in his life. He didn't want to want it again.

But Donovan Kurt has spent forty years perfecting control-of himself, his missions, his emotions. And the moment he sees Artemis, that control begins to crack. This brat with his defiance and his chaos, his death wish and his dangerous talent for pushing Donovan past his breaking point. This brat who needs exactly what Donovan is finally willing to give: someone to take charge, to set rules, to care enough to discipline.

Donovan discovers he's willing to be that man. Willing to dominate. Willing to protect what's becoming his in every way that matters.

Between protection details and covert operations, they ignite the fuse.
Between the dangerous underworld and contracted hits, they explode.

When the most lethal asset is trust, can two broken men come together and fix what's shattered in the other?
