He gave back his seat in the Olympic eight and gave no reason. She knows the reason. She can't say how she knows. The sportswear brand at Henley has paid Kyle Dutton for ten seasons, and its chief executive is sure he will want it all back by July. Kyle sends the money back. The brand sends him a bench with his name on it in brass, and he refuses that too. Martha Kirkby is the brand's head of athlete relations, and he is her athlete. She is also an investigator for a small unit in London that has the brand in its sights, and every Monday it gets her report. Her orders are to stay exactly where she is. He rings her at seven every morning to say nothing much. By June she is back in his bed. Her reports to London have started to lie. In a log she isn't meant to see, her own unit has begun keeping things from her. The brand has one last offer for him: the pair, the boat he has wanted since the day it signed him. He doesn't explain himself, to anybody. She has decided to explain herself to him before somebody else does. It will cost her the job, and perhaps the case. She has one secret left, and she owes it to him.Undercover heroine - the athlete who said no - a sponsor who won't hear it - secrets on both sides - lies in the bedroom - explicit (M/F) - one couple across all three books - Book 2 ends on a cliffhanger - a novel of THE PAIR's world
