Mike Hogan has had a hard life. His mother gave birth to him when she herself was just a child. She died young, which left Mike to grow up in foster homes. He turned to auto crime, but eventually straightened out his life. Later, he found himself in jail for a crime he did not commit, and his only way out after five years was to go undercover for the cops. Mike hates cops, but he loves his freedom. Mike had no intention of getting involved with the prim and proper school teacher, Rebecca Stanford. Mike knew that his life was a mess at the moment and he had no business involving her. Rebecca has always played it safe, but where has safe got her. Her parents are both dead, her husband ran off with a teenage stripper, and she is afraid to let anyone know that she likes Dirty Harry movies. Rebecca needs excitement, but the excitement that she gets with Mike may be much more than she can handle.The last thing Mike wants is to have Rebecca get caught up in his undercover mess. It makes it even worse that he cannot tell Rebecca the truth about his life, both past and present. Mike would do anything for his freedom, except letting Rebecca get hurt. If the police don't protect her than he will. This is a story of one man's struggle to survive and make something out of his life, and one woman, who makes his life worth living. This is a great love story with a constant presence of danger lurking about. It will be interesting to read the next story True Lies, involving Prentice, a cop that I did not believe that I could like after this story, and the pressure he put on Mike.
