Publisher Description
New York Times bestselling author Eric Jerome Dickey sizzles in this rapid-fire sequel to Sleeping with Strangers, which finds international hit man Gideon waking up with his past haunting him and danger knocking at his door.
After a heated encounter inside a London hotel room—where he was pursued by three very different women—Gideon finds himself living in a world where there’s no one to trust.
Someone has taken out a hit on the hit man—but who? Could it be the man he left alive in Tampa, the woman who taught him to kill, the scorned woman he still desires, or some other unseen enemy?
The clock is ticking as Gideon struggles to find out who from his past may have ordered the hit, while attempting to outsmart the assassin who was sent to kill him—a cold-blooded killer who isn’t afraid to harm any woman involved with Gideon and is determined to make his reputation off Gideon’s death.
As the hunter becomes the hunted, Gideon’s hedonistic lifestyle turns into a deadly game of cat and mouse. He will need to find his friends—and also depend on his enemies—to get out of the game alive.

"Erotic noir?? Really good conclusion to Sleeping With Strangers. Dickey is a great storyteller. The lengthy episodes of erotica (really border-line porn) I could have done without, and by this second book, I found myself skipping ahead past those sections, because the rest of the story was so good, I couldn't wait to see what happened next in the main storyline. I get the impression that the erotic stuff is mainly what Dickey does, so I may not be reading much of his other books. However, there is a third Gideon book, which I may read."

— Rose, 1/7/2014 -
" Strange book. Alternates between graphic porn and graphic violence. Still, you know the author has done a great job when you want the main charaacter, an evil to the bone hit-man, to get the non-convnetional happy ending in the orffering. Not saying if he does or not, though. "
— Jessica, 12/10/2013 -

— Malika, 10/17/2013 -
" Ugh! Wade picked it and had listened to half of it so I only came in on the last 1/2. Awful awful awful. I totally agree with some of the other reviewers who gave it 1 star. Terrible writing and pointless sex that goes on and on. Reading the reviews is so funny because some people gave it 5 stars. "
— Jennifer, 10/15/2013 -
" Gideon rocks:)! "
— Tanisa, 7/25/2013 -
" Picks up where "sleeping with srangers" leaves off. First hundred pages are pretty erotic...but it still mixes in the mystery/killing and the sex. Had to keep reading until the end to figure it all out. Pretty cool how he brought in characters from "Chasing Destiny", too. I love his books! "

— Abigail, 4/19/2011 -
" This was a nice sequel to the first book. It let you know what was going on with Gideon a little bit more. At the end of the book, it made me wonder if he would really change his way and start fresh though. Overall I liked it a lot!!!! "
