There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved.

~ All or Nothing ~
Somebody wants Cara Sinclair dead. Joe Reynolds is determined to keep her alive, but that's not all he wants.
Filing to divorce one of the west coast's most notorious crime bosses is probably not the best idea Cara ever had. If not for her step-brother, Brian, convincing her abusive husband to leave her alone, she'd have been dead six months ago.
Now Joe, a man she meets right before two gunmen try to kill them both, is telling her it's not her husband who's out to get her. Joe just saved her life and she wants to trust him, but who else could possibly want her dead? And why does she get the feeling Joe didn't appear in her life just by chance?
An undercover investigation into Cara's family business reveals Sinclair Arms Distributing is selling illegal automatic weapons. The investigation goes bad and one of Joe's operatives dies, but not before telling him Cara's life is in danger and making him promise to keep her safe.
Joe doesn't know if Cara is involved in her step-brother's criminal activities or not, but now that he's been forced to get involved in order to save her life, he sees an opportunity to use her to get to her step-brother.
Falling in love with her wasn't part of the plan!
