Hidden in the Shadows by K. Alex Walker

“I want to be that for you. Xara, I’m your man. The only thing you should have to worry about is opening your eyes in the morning. I’m supposed to have you for all the rest.”
For Mike Huang, the only redemption he’s ever been granted for every sinister thing he’s done in his life is his wife, Xara Merritt.
Years ago, he and Xara escaped their small town with nothing but their dreams and each other.
Now, they’re happily married, their passion burns hotter than ever, and he and Xara feel like they’re ready to become a family of three.
So far, his personal and private lives have remained separate, and he’s been able to avoid retaliation falling back onto Xara for the darkest of his deeds.
But then the Sarayev clan puts a bounty on his head and a red dot on the back of his skull.
A clan he cares nothing about…until they take a knife to his wife’s face.
