Smoke thought he was doing his friend a favor when he agreed to protect a beautiful and intriguing psychiatrist. He is a tough, decorated veteran, and a man of few words. The client, Doctor Olivia Bennet is a psychiatrist who wrote a bestselling book about sex. The press nicknamed her Doctor Orgasm and, as Dr. O lives, a sometimes, hazardous red-carpet lifestyle. These two wildly different people are hiding unresolved wounds-one in the spotlight and one in the dark. The collision of their two worlds spark a fiery romance. He arrives in New York City and finds her reluctant to accept his help. Her attitude changes after a whistleblower priest, seeking her counsel, confides a dark secret. Two high ranking clergy, involved in a multi-million-dollar crime, enlist an unscrupulous developer to silence the priest and all with whom he confides. While the police are playing catch up, Smoke and Doctor O are chased by a relentless hit squad with their only salvation being bringing the powerful clerics to justice. If they don't get killed first, Smoke's long-shot gamble might cause them to wonder if his solution was more than just luck and their intervention actually redemption.
