About Kill for You
Contemporary Crime Fiction/Romantic Suspense
The last thing Detective Octavio Hernandez expects to find at the scene of a mass gang-related shooting is a brown-eyed angel standing bravely in the midst of the chaos. One look at Faith Donovan and the homicide detective knows there's more to her than meets the eye. She's keeping secrets that just might help bring down Los Zetas, one of the biggest drug cartels in Los Angeles.
He just has to convince her that trusting him is worth the risk.
Forced upon a mother who didn't want her and enslaved by a gang that refuses to let her go without a fight, Faith's life has never been her own. She thought she'd made peace with her fate…until Octavio sweeps in and carries her out of her blood-soaked cage.
Faith trusts no one, but the hardened detective makes it difficult to remember why. The way he cares for her makes her ache for what she never thought she'd find: love and a family of her own. But trusting him when she knows he has an ulterior motive is one of the most difficult things she'll ever do.
He swore to give her the freedom she craves, but when the secrets she holds paint a target on her back, keeping that promise will prove no easy feat.
To secure her freedom and win her heart, this detective will move mountains. And take down anyone standing in his way.
Kill for You is the second book in a series of interconnected full-length novels featuring law enforcement officers willing to do whatever it takes to protect the women who need them most. Each book can be read as a standalone.

Excerpt from Kill for You
"You should eat something, Faith."
"I'm not hungry." It's not a lie. The thought of food sends bile creeping up my throat. Octavio doesn't need to know that part though. "I had a big lunch."
He growls wordlessly, thrusting out an arm to stop me from slipping past him. "Stop trying to run from me, little bunny. It's pissing me off."
"I'm not running from you."
His eyes flash fire at me. "You're lying to me."
"I'm not…" The warning look he sends in my direction unravels my protest before I can even fully formulate it. "You're tired, Octavio. I'm just trying to get out of the way so you can go to bed. You've only had two hours of sleep since you got up yesterday morning."
"I'd sleep a hell of a lot better if you were in my bed with me, conejita."
"That's…not a good idea."
"Why not?"
"Because it's not."
Another growl rumbles in his chest. Something almost predatory flares in his chocolate eyes. He takes a step toward me, his expression fierce. I back up, but he keeps moving forward, stalking me like a wild animal until my back is pressed against the wall beside the recliner. My heart pounds like a drum against my ribcage and my stomach flutters.
"Back up," I whisper, my voice shaking.
"I'm not going to hurt you."
I never thought he would, but he's too close. If he touches me, I'll crumble. And being rejected by this man once was enough. I don't think I'll survive a repeat of that.
"I'd tear my heart out of my chest before I hurt you."
"You already hurt me," I whisper.
"How?" He leans over me, placing his forearm on the wall above my head. His scent surrounds me, making me dizzy. I lock my knees, clenching my hands into fists to keep myself from wrapping them in his shirt. "Tell me, little bunny. What did I do to hurt you?"
"You didn't want me." I grit my teeth and square my jaw, fighting the urge to cry over that fact. I think I'd sell my soul to belong to this man, but he doesn't feel the same way about me. That shouldn't matter as much as it does. It shouldn't hurt so damn badly. My own mother didn't want me, but I think knowing Octavio doesn't want me hurts even worse than that.
"Ah, angel," he whispers, his voice pained…as if I hurt him. "Don't you know I'd kill any man who tried to touch you?" He brings his right arm up, tipping my face up toward his with gentle fingers. The intense expression on his face sears into me, stealing my breath. "Tu me vuelves loca. Te adoro. Te necesito. Quiero que seas mio."
"I…what?" My head spins and I know there's no way I'm awake because there's no way he just told me that he adores me. That he needs me. That he wants me to be his.
"You drive me crazy. I adore you. I need you. I want you to be mine," he whispers, leaning forward to place his lips against my cheek as he confirms that I didn't mishear anything he said.
"I…" My mouth won't work. My tongue feels thick and heavy, like it's cloven to the roof of my mouth. My knees tremble like they might give out beneath me.
"Believe me," he whispers, his voice a rumbling growl of sound that liquefies my insides. "When you kissed me, I never wanted you to stop. It was the best damn kiss of my life. But I was trying to be good, Faith. I was trying to be honorable. To be the kind of man who deserves you."
"I…I don't understand."
"I didn't want you to think I was anything like Sanders, willing to use my position as your caretaker to get you into my bed." He leans back until his chocolate gaze collides with mine. Nothing but sincerity burns in the dark depths of his eyes. "I've tried so damn hard to be good. But I'm just a man. And if I don't make you mine soon, I'm going to lose my fucking mind in want of you."
"Octavio." My mind spins again, trying to make sense of what he's saying, trying to fit it into place with what I know about him. That he thinks he's anything like Agent Sanders breaks my heart. How can he not know that I've never once compared him to that horrible man? That I would never compare them? "You're nothing like him. You are a good, honorable man." I swallow hard, tears welling in my eyes. "The best man I've ever known."
"If you knew the things I think about doing to you, little angel, you might not be so quick to defend me," he murmurs. "You might be horrified."
I stare up at him. "Do you think about taking me against my will?"
"Never," he swears.
"Do you think about hurting me?"
"I would tear my own heart out first."
My lips curve upward. I reach out, placing a hand against his scruffy cheek. "Then you're nothing like he is, Octavio. I may not have…experience…but I'm not naïve. I know what men think about, what they want. I…" My cheeks heat, though I'm not sure why when he just told me he feels the same way I do. "I think about doing those things too. With you."
"Te extraño. Quédate conmigo esta noche, conejita. Te quiero en mi cama. Por favor." He kisses my cheek again, his scruffy jaw gently abrading my sensitive skin. "I miss you. Stay with me tonight, little bunny. I want you in my bed." His lips sweep toward my ear as he translates. He always translates for me even though I don't need him to do it. I think he likes saying it in both languages, likes giving me his words every way I can understand them. "Please."
I whisper the only answer I'm capable of giving him. "Yes."
