Deception

Playing the odds has always been Fin Borders forte - especially in the high stakes world of poker. An innocent woman had been accused of murder‚ and to help Fin would have to go back to the small Southern town of her birth. It's a place she's been running from her entire life‚ a place of violence‚ a place where she got by with nothing more than her wits. Returning to Hallden‚ Georgia‚ means facing the ghosts of the brutal crime that Fin will never forget-and risking her own life.

But Fin isn't the only one in Hallden hunting for a killer. FBI Special Agent Caleb Matthews is deep undercover‚ hiding his true identity and his own desperate history. Working alone is far too dangerous‚ so he and Fin must learn to trust each other. But as they grow closer‚ they are unprepared for the passion that takes hold . . . and the shocking deception that could destroy everything they hold dear.
