Exception to the Rules (Wild Hearts Collection #2)

Who says you can't go home again?

Hunter Agency operative Kimmer Reed has been assigned to the home town she barely survived as a child, charged with protecting a computer genius who holds more secrets than she ought to. Vastly changed, greatly disguised, and still as fierce as she ever was, Kimmer is ready for anything--even submersion in the place she once fled.

Or so Kimmer thinks. But the computer genius is already compromised, and the woman's personal bodyguard, Rio Carlsen, knows nothing of it--or of Kimmer. Well, no big deal in KimmerWorld. She's ready to evade them all, from bad guys to bodyguard.

That is, until it's time to take the bad guys down. But as she desperately scrambles to save the people in her present, she'll have to face her biggest challenge yet: Can she stop running from her past?
