Cobra Ink by Hayley Lane

What if the only person who can save you is the one who will destroy you? He asks me to trust him and says he’ll protect me, but how can I trust him when telling the truth about my past could kill my family and me?

Him
I’m a professional assassin who never misses a target. I stalk my prey with patience and precision, then strike fast and hard. But someone got to my mark before me and killed my friend. True to my nature, I swore to avenge him, and nothing will stop me.
Until her.
Eyes haunted by secrets draw me in and trigger my protective instinct, but she refuses to let me in. I’m not looking for love, but she makes me feel things I never felt before, things I never thought I wanted. Now I have to choose between loving her and avenging my friend. Time is ticking, disaster is looming, and I’m about to lose the only thing that matters.

Her
After years in a relationship that left me scarred and traumatized, I thought I’d found freedom, but the past is not done with me yet. My abusive husband will stop at nothing to get me back under his control. I’m afraid and broke and have no one to turn to for help.
Until him.
A rugged biker outlaw whose searing gaze matches the hypnotizing eyes of the reptile inked on his arm. His demanding touch kicks off a spark in me I have never felt before, but cobras come in different species with a distinct common trait: they’re deadly. I can’t afford to trust anyone. No matter how he tempts me with his demanding kisses or how protected I feel in his arms, my past is the ironclad reason never to let him close.
Will Rebecca risk her heart and life for a chance at love with the brooding but sexy biker Chris? Will she run away from her shot at happiness before he learns the truth, or can they overcome their fears and trust each other enough to start a new life together?
