SEDUCED BY THE HITMAN

A Dark Romantic Suspense

By: SCARLETT CROSS

He was sent to erase her.
Instead, he became the only thing standing between her and the men who want her dead.

Daniel Brooks doesn’t make mistakes.

He completes contracts.
He leaves no witnesses.
He never hesitates.

Until Megan Collins.

She’s not reckless. She’s not loud. She’s not looking for trouble. She’s an environmental compliance auditor who followed irregular paperwork tied to a Chicago riverfront freight expansion — and found something she wasn’t meant to see.

Inside The Brokerage, people like Megan aren’t murdered.

They’re processed.

“Loss mitigation.”

Dock crane malfunctions.
Winter slip-and-falls.
Electrical fires.

Everything looks like an accident.

Daniel watches her for four days.
Learns her routines.
Finds the clean shot.

And lowers the rifle.

That hesitation marks him.

Now another operative is assigned.
Now the kill order escalates.
Now the system turns on both of them.

What starts as surveillance turns into proximity.
Proximity turns into heat.
Heat turns into obsession.

Daniel doesn’t promise Megan safety.
He doesn’t promise redemption.
He doesn’t promise a future that looks normal.

He promises one thing:

He stays.

But when Chicago’s most disciplined criminal network decides to remove them both, staying means war — and Daniel is very good at war.

Seduced by the Hitman is a dark romantic suspense set against the frozen docks and industrial corridors of Chicago in winter. Featuring an anti-hero hitman, a calm and intelligent heroine, high heat, obsessive protection, and a grounded criminal underworld where paperwork comes before blood.

This isn’t soft.
This isn’t safe.
This is choice.
