For years, everyone on the Five-0 task force believed that Steve McGarrett had never truly settled down. What they don’t know is that years before returning to Hawaii, Steve had fallen deeply in love with another detective during a joint federal task force. To protect each other during dangerous undercover work, they kept their relationship a secret. When a decorated detective unexpectedly transfers to Honolulu, Steve is stunned to see the woman he thought he’d never work with again. She’s not just his ex. She’s the woman he never stopped loving.

Their professional partnership became something deeper, but the danger surrounding the mission forced them to end their relationship when Riley accepted an assignment overseas. Neither of them ever truly moved on.
