Determined to make his own way, Jose Gonzalez wants no part of the family business. Helping South Beach Security find land for its growing K-9 division should be easy, and working alongside search-and-rescue specialist Sara Hernandez is an unexpected perk. But when they find two bodies on the property he purchased, everything changes. Will the serial killer they’re tracking rob them of a future together?

Hezekiah Touré cares about two things: looking after his younger brothers and managing the Touré Security Group. To protect his family, he agrees to go into hiding with PI Celeste Jarrett after a serial killer threat.
