Griffin Drake just wanted a story, but he finds himself wanting Jim Shea's heart, instead.
Detective James "Jim" Shea is a Seattle homicide detective who has never taken his work home with him--until now. A case has gotten under his skin and though it's "over," it isn't for Jim. The emotional toll has left him vulnerable and tied to the victim's dying father.
Meanwhile, Hollywood comes calling for a hot story, and screenwriter Griffin Drake sees the tragic case as his ticket to more serious fare than his usual action blockbusters. But to get the whole story he needs to win over the stoic and protective Detective Shea.
