A decorated hero, pararescueman Liam McCabe lives to serve. Six months ago, he and Rachel Flores met in the horrific aftermath of an earthquake in the Bahamas. They were tempted by an explosive attraction, yet parted ways. Still, Liam has thought about Rachel every day—and night—since.

Now, after ignoring all his phone calls for six months, Rachel has turned up on base with a wild story about a high-ranking military traitor. She claims no one but Liam can help her—and she won’t trust anyone else.

With nothing but her word and the testimony of a discharged military cop to go on, Liam would be insane to risk his career—even his life—to help this woman who left him in the dust.

Sub plots enrich this story. Brandon, the veteran with PTSD, and Catriona, who owns a special dog sitting business, creates a story that is captivating.

Catherine Mann once again gives the reader a spellbinding story with special super heroes whose motto is: “These things we do that others may live”. She weaves together humor, love, alligators in the Everglades, murder in the military, dogs undaunted by danger, and an amazing, diverse group of characters that sweep the reader into the actions and emotions with a climax that is mind-blowing.
