About this story
Nick Castile is the man his mob-boss brother calls when someone needs to disappear — a government-trained assassin with no conscience and no attachments. Then the mayor asks for one more “accident”: the husband who has been beating his daughter. At the mayor's gala Nick meets her twin sister, Dr. Jordan Calloway — brilliant, stubborn and determined to get to know the one man she shouldn't. He knows he should walk away. But someone else wants Jordan too, and every week another bouquet of purple roses arrives with no name.
