He knows how to escape anything—except falling in love.
Reno Marks has never been much for rules.
After escaping an alcoholic mother, he heads to Las Vegas determined to become a professional magician. But before he can make his dreams come true, Reno is forced to live on the wrong side of life, learning firsthand just how dangerous the world can be.
Women? Reno loves them.
Love? That's another story.
He's never been in love, and he's not even sure he knows what it feels like.
Then Jenny walks into his life.
She's beautiful, smart, and a preschool teacher who needs Reno's help. What starts as a favor triggers an emotion he's never experienced—and suddenly the carefree bad boy finds himself wanting something he never thought he needed.
Her.
But Jenny sees exactly what Reno is: trouble.
She doesn't have the time—or the inclination—to tame a man who has spent his entire life running from responsibility. If Reno wants her, he's going to have to prove he's more than the bad boy she thinks he is.
And while Reno struggles to win Jenny's heart, a dangerous mystery is unfolding around them.
Someone has disappeared.
Secrets are piling up.
And the deeper Reno and Jenny get, the more dangerous the answers become.
Reno may be able to perform magic, but there's no trick that can make danger disappear.
To save Jenny—and have any chance at the future he suddenly wants—Reno will have to step far outside his comfort zone.
Because this time, the stakes aren't just about solving a mystery.
They're about discovering whether a man who has never believed in love can risk everything for the woman who finally made him believe.
Killer Date is a fast-paced contemporary romantic suspense filled with danger, mystery, sexual tension, unexpected twists, and a bad-boy hero who discovers that the hardest thing to escape may be love.
