On a planet where you could never quite get warm enough, it quickly became uncomfortably warm, then uncomfortably hot. G. Drew Akers had been in deep mines before, he'd worked in one for two years in Hussy Crater in his early twenties. He'd decided then that he never wanted to return to one, fortunately he wouldn't be in this one long. But that mine in Hussy had only been two kilometres below the surface of Mars, this mine was almost twelve.At the mine in Hussy he rode an elevator like this one twice each day, but here the miners lived below. Agni Mining Station was a small self-contained town at the bottom of the elevator shaft. He reached up and wiped the sweat from his brow. He'd only been in the elevator a few minutes, and already his clothes were soaked with sweat, and he was developing a headache. He opened his jacket hoping the sweat would evaporate, and in the process exposed the butt of the pistol in his shoulder holster.

Shakespeare never looked so dirty. Cold. Ruthless. Killer. That’s my birthright. The only thing meant for me. Until her. Because when she gazed up at me, her honeyed hair spread across the pillow, her soft body naked and open, she made me feel like I could be different. She gave me a reason to be different. Imagine my shock when I’m dragged into an interrogation room, their prime suspect, and she walks in… Detective Julianna Capulet. I am so fucked. Because I still want her. I want her like an addict craves his drug. I need her like a sinner needs his absolution. And I will have her. Even if it kills us both... And so begins a deadly game of cat and mouse, of blood and lust, of love and duty, and of an attraction so fierce the consequences are inevitable. Inspired by Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, this is a sexy retelling with a HEA! **
