Ashton Carter is a government assassin known to the underworld as Vesper—silent, lethal, and unstoppable. But after three grueling weeks of bloodshed, all he wants is to return home to his wife Ellie, kiss her breathless, and maybe reclaim a little peace (and a lot of skin contact).
But his plan for a steamy reunion is immediately sabotaged by unexpected houseguests, clingy kids, and a complete lack of privacy. Between dodging suspicious in-laws and failing seduction attempts, Ash realizes that surviving assassinations might be easier than getting five minutes alone with his wife.
A hilarious, spicy romantic short story about deadly skills, desperate husbands, and the kind of love that makes even trained killers soft.
