Wilhelmina "Billie" Ryan was a Marine Corps sniper with SpecOps
training. When her six-year tour of duty came to an end she was
recruited by the CIA, where she applied her knowledge of warfare
tactics to the shadowy world of international espionage. But not
even a tough as nails former soldier-turned-spy known as the
She-Devil was immune to heartbreak: A gangbanger's bullet took the
life of her fiance in a drive-by shooting where someone else was
the target, and she was so devastated by the loss that she
ran-leaving behind her job, her friends, and even her family. A
year later, CIA agent John Courtney is tasked with finding Billie
and bringing her home. Three members of her former Force Recon unit
have gone missing, and she's quite possibly the only person who can
find them. When he does locate her, she's living under an assumed
name and tending bar on the beach with an old nemesis from her own
days as an agent...and before he can explain why he's there, the
two are forced to flee for their lives when the Russian mafia makes
it known that they're after Billie too. Back home, Billie struggles
to reconnect with her family on top of finding out what really
happened to her former teammates. She and John are also fighting
the attraction growing between them, which he is more than willing
to pursue but for which she's not even sure she's ready. Giving in
to her burgeoning feelings for her fellow spy means taking the risk
of getting hurt again, not to mention she doesn't believe she's
fully over her grief for the man she loved and lost. Matters are
further complicated when it seems a high-ranking Pentagon official
is not being entirely truthful, and may in fact be involved in
something highly illegal. Hired guns and a mystery with no leads
make for one hell of a welcome home. When painful memories threaten
to cripple her ability to keep a clear head, will Billie remember
her strength in time to save the lives of everyone she loves-as
well as her own?
