Padlock's Undercover Desire

When Padlock Can’t Stay Cool

Raven McCool has a reputation to uphold. Undercover as Penny Padlock, she’s sharp, fearless, and unshakably cool under pressure. She can face down criminals, juggle lies, and outsmart anyone who dares cross her.

But there’s one problem: Hot Stuff.

At Rock n’ Roll Alfie’s, the store employees dubbed security guard Matt with the nickname as a joke—but it stuck because he lives up to it. Steady, confident, and far too magnetic, Matt is the kind of man who makes even Raven’s ironclad defenses waver.

And that’s the danger. Because when “Hot Stuff” is around, Penny Padlock can’t always be cool. Her pulse betrays her. Her walls crack. The undercover cop who can handle everything suddenly finds herself flustered by the one thing she didn’t plan for: desire.

In Revealations, the heat isn’t just in the case Raven’s trying to solve—it’s in the chemistry she’s trying so hard to deny.
