Blurb/Synopsis:
As former NSA, Dayton (Day) Ingram has
national security chops and now works as a technical analyst for Scorpion. He
longs for field work, and scuttling an attack gives his chance. He’s smart,
multilingual, and a technological wizard. But his opportunity comes with a
hitch—a partner, Knighton (Knight), who is a real mystery. Despite countless
hours of research, Day can find nothing on the agent, including his first name!
Former Marine Knight crawled into a bottle
after losing his family. After drying out, he’s offered one last chance: along
with Day, stop a terrorist threat from the Yucatan. To get there without
drawing suspicion, Day and Knight board a gay cruise, where the deeply closeted
Day and equally closeted Knight must pose as a couple. Tensions run high as
Knight communicates very little and Day bristles at Knight’s heavy-handed need
for control.
But after drinking too much, Day and Knight
wake up in bed. Together. As they near their destination, they must learn to
trust and rely on each other to infiltrate the terrorist camp and neutralize
the plot aimed at the US’s technological infrastructure, if they hope to have a
life after the mission. One that might
include each other.

Excerpt:
“Are you going to knock off for the night
or sleep at your desk, newbie?” Knight asked, breaking Day’s concentration. “I
have our travel arrangements all set, and the company even sprang for a decent
stateroom.”
“We’re only going to be on the ship a few
days. It seems like a waste to—”
Knight cut him off with a wave of his hand.
“You’ve been busy and haven’t heard the latest. The sailing we’re on is a gay
cruise, so you and I are playing the part of lovers on a vacation together.”
Day’s stomach did a flip and he tried his
best to keep his discomfort off his face. “Sounds… interesting.” God, what in
the hell did he say to that?
“Don’t worry, we don’t have to take it too
far, but it was the easiest way to get us on the ship we need, and it will help
us blend in with the other passengers.” Knight handed him a set of papers. “Put
this someplace safe. That should be all your travel arrangements.”
Day nodded, reading through the details.
“I’ll see you tomorrow,” Knight said. “And
you’re welcome.”
Day looked up from the travel documents and
opened his mouth to say thank you, but Knight was already leaving the office
with the grace of a panther on the prowl. Day was transfixed, his mind
instantly stripping away the dress shirt and pants, imagining what might be
hidden beneath. Probably acres of rich, olive-toned skin with just enough short
dark hair on his chest to make things really interesting. Day’s mind conjured
up a scent that made his head swim.
“Practicing for the cruise?” Knight asked
from the doorway, and Day blinked once as he fell back to reality.
“Just wondering if being an ass came
naturally to you or if you actually worked at it?” Day flashed a smile,
thankful he’d been able to come up with something to cover his little daydream.
Shit like that had to end. He needed to keep things together. He could do this.
“It’s a talent gifted by the gods,” Knight
countered and left the room before Day had a chance to respond.
Day ground his teeth for a few seconds.
That guy was going to drive him insane. He wished he had someone else as his
partner for his first assignment. Day closed the transmission files he’d been
working on and saved them onto a USB stick so he could take them home. A grin
formed on his face as he opened a window into the Scorpion internal systems and
went to work, searching for information on Knighton. If he was going to be
working with the man, he was going to find out everything there was to know
about him. Fuck if he’d stumble around like some newbie and let Knight get the
better of him all the time.
