Hugh DeLuca wants to settle down and start a family. But the only woman he wants-the one he can't get out of his mind-doesn't seem the family type. She's Christine Hart, a tough-as-nails police detective, and she happens to be investigating a mob murder at one of his construction sites. As Chris's feelings for him start to show, Hugh struggles to keep his distance. He's afraid the savvy cop will break his heart, that she'll choose her career over him-or worse yet, her deadly job will take her away forever. Little does he know, he's the one who will break her heart...and turn the murder investigation upside down.
