Silenced — A.K. Evans

Maxwell 'Maxie' Oliver wasn't looking for trouble. She would have rather remained oblivious. Now that she has information she doesn't want, a missing coworker, and a scandal on the horizon, Maxie doesn't think she can remain quiet. But being a whistleblower comes at a high price, and Maxie isn't willing to risk her life. Kit Sexton knows the lengths some people will go to in order to line their pockets. So, when Maxie comes to him, looking for someone to keep her safe, he's determined to see that she stays that way. Especially when he can't get the gorgeous woman who took his breath away out of his mind. But the stakes are high, and the criminals are ruthless. Kit is going to have to stay focused if he wants to make sure that Maxie isn't permanently silenced.
