They say forgiveness sets you free. But I don't want freedom... I want revenge.

CRICKET
We loved each other under the guise of friendship, but we always knew it was more. I thought our bond was unbreakable, until he broke it.

Now, all I want is to escape him and the heartbreak of his betrayal. So when an opportunity outside of our team arises, I volunteer. My mission is simple: seduce the secrets out of the handsome billionaire, then report back to headquarters.

Except his unexpected charming smile has me thinking... maybe it's time to disappear into a new life.

LANCE
I'll only ever love one woman. And I only betrayed her to save her life.

Now she hates me. Her blood boils when we're in the same room. But I know one day she'll forgive me. In the meantime, her spiteful rage is kind of a turn-on.

The problem is her uncover assignment. Her new boss is a threat I never saw coming. He's extra dangerous. All his games are psychological and she's falling for every single trick.

When Cricket goes missing, I start crossing lines and breaking rules I never thought I would. All to get answers. Hoping somewhere deep down, my best friend is still there.
