A Wall Street Journal bestseller.
Danger rises and love is threatened in New York Times bestselling
author Susan Stoker's fourth book of the Mountain Mercenaries series.
Lowell "Black" Lockard, former Navy SEAL, has watched his fellow
Mountain Mercenaries settle down with the women of their dreams, but
he's convinced he doesn't need love. Then he gets a call from Harlow
Reese--a chef at a local women's shelter--and begins to reconsider his
decision.
After being continually harassed by a local band of punks, Harlow asks
Lowell to give the women of the shelter lessons in self-defense. She
doesn't expect him to take such a special interest in her safety, but he
insists on escorting her to and from work, never taking no for an
answer. Not that Harlow minds the personal touch...especially when it's
coming from her former teenage crush.
Despite her long history of bad dating luck, seeing Black again makes
Harlow rethink her self-imposed celibacy. Easy on the eyes and hard to
forget, the man has morphed into an alpha stud. And Harlow may be
exactly the type of woman Black is looking for. Making her feel safe
isn't only a duty; it's a pleasure. But the threats are escalating. The
motives are a mystery. And as the danger burns almost as hot as their
passion, there's much more at risk than their hearts.
