When the FBI needs Jordan Rhodes to get them inside an exclusive mob-connected fundraiser, she strikes a deal—her brother's freedom in exchange for one undercover night. Enter Nick McCall, the Bureau's top agent and a master of staying detached, who's assigned as her fake date for the evening. But the moment these two sharp-witted, gorgeous people are forced into close quarters, the sparks fly so hot they might actually blow their cover. What begins as a calculated assignment quickly becomes something neither of them can control, as they discover that some assignments are worth breaking every rule for.
Reading soundtrack
Crackling tension between two sharp minds forced into dangerous proximity. Sultry R&B, confident pop, and indie tracks that pulse with witty banter and undeniable chemistry. Think Khalid, SZA, Maggie Rogers—smooth yet electric, playful yet smoldering.
