title: Ilan
author: Archer, Dana
description: I didn’t just fall for the stereotypical bad boy. I fell for an ancient, shapeshifting, trained assassin with a bounty on his head.
  Sara
  It was supposed to be a simple house call from one employee to another, a waitress checking in on a bouncer working at the same bar. But instead of doing a favor for my sexy, aloof coworker Ilan, I’ve narrowly escaped a gruesome death at the hands of a shifter, become a target of said shifter’s partner, and inadvertently rescued Ilan’s infant nephew in the process.
  The things a woman has to do to get a guy’s attention these days…
  Ilan
  This isn’t the way I’d imagined being closer to Sara. I’ve tried to keep my distance for years. She’s human, and she’s way too good for someone like me: a killer who’s spent dozens lifetimes keeping secrets and living in the shadows.
  The problem is, Sara’s landed in the middle of a botched assassination attempt. I need her to take care of the baby while I try to save my brother and reunite him with his kid, if he’s still alive. Oh, and watch my own back in the meantime.
  It’s a big favor to ask of her. It’s also the perfect excuse to keep Sara close to me, to make sure she’s safe. And now that she’s under my care, I don’t know if I can ever let her go.
