In the treacherous world of covert operations, Special Forces Sgt. Case “Lurch” Lundquist thrives on danger.

Nyx Templeton is no damsel in distress—usually. But this time, she's out of her depth. She doesn't trust the rugged mercenary who steps in, until she recognizes him from a picture she saw years earlier. He's her brother's best friend. She remains quiet, knowing one wrong word could cost him everything.

Case battles to stay focused, but Nyx is a distraction. When she boldly asks him to cash in her V-card, he can't resist. It's not just a yes—it's a hell, yes!

Zofia Parker knows smuggling priceless relics out of a war-torn country is a hazardous job. So it's not a surprise to find herself on the run with the Disk of the Gods, an ancient artifact on everyone's wish list. Losing her passport and phone complicates her escape, but she has an ace in the air, winging his way to her rescue. She might just make it out of this mess alive—if she can stay one step ahead of the government brute squads and ruthless criminals chasing her. And if she can find a way to rendezvous with the former Special Forces soldier hellbent on saving her.

Finn Rowland doesn't have time for bogus government charges and a stint in a Puerto Jardinese jail. Not when his woman is on the run. Not when she's in danger. But escaping is the easy part. Finding Zo and getting her out of the country before one of the factions trailing her closes in for the kill will require him to return to the world of covert ops. He's walking a tightrope without a net and one misstep could cost him his life. And the life of his woman.

Blue-Blooded Woman

As an ambassador's daughter, Langley Canfield has lived all over the world, but she's never fit in—not abroad and not at home.

Blue-Collar Guy

Special Forces Sergeant Ryder Pienkowski knew that he'd never be able to hold on to Langley Canfield, that she was completely out of his league, but it still stuns him when she ends things between them. He's trying to get her out of his head when her father arrives and tells Ryder there's a death threat directed at her. Without hesitation, Ryder hops on a plane and flies out to protect Langley. She might not want him anymore, but he's not letting anyone hurt her.
