Córdova, Brianne Ritchie – A Labor of Hate*

October 3, 2025 · In: 19th

Before there was Dekker and Max, there was Lex and Colt.

When FBI agent Lex Piper is offered the opportunity to collar a lowlife the FBI has been after for years, she jumps at the chance. However, her undercover assignment comes with a caveat.A persnickety, irritating, unfairly handsome caveat.

Special Agent Colt Dixon, Lex’s bitter rival, deskmate, and new fake husband. And if that isn’t bad enough, they only have one opening to get close to their target-his pregnant wife’s Lamaze classes. For the sake of the Greater Good, Lex is now fake-pregnant, fake-married, and desperately trying to keep work and her personal life from converging. All she has to do is keep the line between love and hate from blurring and everything will be fine. She’ll fool the most paranoid man the criminal underworld has to offer, betray the first friend she’s made since moving to Detroit, and absolutely not feel butterflies when Colt holds her hand.

Easy.
