The Hitman's Bodyguard

Detective Ryan Ashton never thought his day could plummet any lower when he received orders to transport the notorious criminal Austin Clemmons halfway across the state. Now, he's charged with safeguarding a key witness, but everybody knows Clemmons is slipperier than a rattlesnake and twice as vicious. Clemmons was the kind of criminal that even his nightmares fled from. After Ashton botched a mission, allowing one of the most infamous kingpins to make off with millions of dollars worth of narcotics, he knew his job hung by a single thread. Things would've been simpler if he were the only one gunning for Clemmons. As they raced to make it from LA to ATL in just four days, he found himself relying on a man with blood on his hands. There's a fiery passion between them that sends shivers down his spine. Will they manage to survive this treacherous journey? Or will the shadowy figures attempting to assassinate Clemmons bring them both down in a heart-pounding race against time?
