When she was just five years old, Melissa Braxton watched her
father take her mother's life. Separated from her sister, Lola, at
that time, Melissa grew up with a strong desire to help those stuck
in abusive relationships. It's why she became a therapist and
opened a domestic abuse shelter. After losing a leg to a gunshot
wound in the line of duty, Phil Osbourne has felt like a man
without a purpose--until he hears Melissa's story and decides to
use his Special Forces contacts to track down her missing sister.
He knows what he discovers will break Melissa's heart. What he
doesn't realize is that helping the women reunite will bring the
cartel down on them like the category 5 hurricane striking Miami.
Bruised yet not quite broken, Melissa and Phil battle the storm and
the cartel, calling on strength they didn't know they had to escape
death, save the innocent, and--just maybe--find healing in each
other's arms.
FBI Special Agent Lynda Culter is investigating an ecoterrorist
organization in the Alaskan wilderness when her partner is taken
captive and murdered before her very eyes. The only person who can
identify the key players, Lynda gets assigned to take part in a
joint operation in Istanbul to take the organization down. As a
woman in a Muslim country, she'll find it much easier to move
around undetected with a fake husband. Unfortunately for her, the
man assigned to play the role is none other than US Army weapons
specialist Bill Sanders--the man who crushed her heart into a
million pieces back in college. With a cargo bay's worth of hurt
and baggage between them, these two consummate professionals must
play their parts perfectly if they hope to stop those responsible
for bombing oil pipelines, killing innocent civilians, and
threatening to destabilize the oil markets. But love long buried
has a way of resurfacing at the most inopportune times--and
protecting Lynda has become Bill's primary focus.
It may seem odd to seek peace by moving to a war-torn African
country, but for medical missionary Dr. Cynthia Myers, it provided
a way to escape a shallow life of unearned wealth, a philandering
fiance, and a father now square in the public eye as vice president
of the United States. At least here she knows her work and life
have meaning. But all that is thrown into chaos when she fails to
save the life of a local warlord's mortally wounded son. As part of
the Army Special Forces "A-Team" on a mission to capture and subdue
the warlord, Captain Rick Norton is compelled to use deadly force
to save Cynthia's life. Enraged at the violence she witnessed and
riddled with guilt that men died because of her, Cynthia tries to
hold on to her anger--but an unwanted attraction is taking hold.
With two members of his team badly injured and rebels in hot
pursuit, Rick will have to draw upon all his strength and cunning
to get her out alive . . . because he's beginning to think they
just might overcome their differences and be able to make a life
together.
