After
a grueling assignment with the black ops force known as the Alliance, Weston
Brown is craving downtime. Instead, he's pulled into his deadliest operation,
in the one place he never wanted to see again. No-nonsense and so damn hot,
Lexi Turner lied to get him to her mountain clinic in Pakistan. But the threat
is terrifyingly real.
Lexi
has been asking too many questions, drawing the wrong kind of attention. As
soon as she lays eyes on West, she can tell he's quiet—yet tough—and has a
rescue complex which will come in handy for going up against the world's most
ruthless gunrunners.
Cut
off from the rest of the Alliance, Lexi and West navigate the brutal terrain
and a primal sexual attraction. Sticking around has never been West's way, but
now he'll use every resource to keep Lexi by his side, safe from a killer who
leaves no loose ends behind.

Excerpt
After
spending most of his adult life in the Marines, Weston Brown recognized a
shithole when he stepped right in one. He had no one else to blame for this
assignment. Just his piss poor decision-making. Next time his team leader told
him about an optional operation, he’d take a pass. Wouldn’t kill him to sit one
out now and then.
With his gun
in his hand and his finger skimming along the side, right off the trigger, he
scanned the area, squinting to check his surroundings in the fading light.
Skardu, Pakistan. The town served as the launching area for high-altitude
climbing expeditions. Dusty and barren, filled with grayish-brown boulders and
outlined by a towering mountain range. A few rivers and bursts of green
provided by man-made irrigation systems broke through the rough landscape.
This was not
his idea of the ideal vacation spot, and that’s what he was supposed to be
doing—taking mandatory leave—forced rest between assignments with the Alliance,
the elite black ops fighting force put together mostly from the United States’
CIA and MI6, the British intelligence service.
The work
suited him since he wasn’t a desk guy, but it wouldn’t be a bad thing to go a
week or so without choking or shooting someone. When his eyes locked on the
target dead ahead, he knew the no-violence thing wasn’t going to happen today.
He’d done
this a million times. Careful steps, slowed breathing. A mental countdown to
impact. Calculating the risks and preparing a second option if this one went
sideways. He’d been trained to be ready—always. To kill without thinking.
His boot hit
the ground right behind the armed unknown leaning against a tree and aiming his
weapon at the building in the distance. The guy must have sensed him because he
flinched a second before contact. Started to turn. West locked his arm around
the guy’s neck before he could call out and bring his friends running.
Flailing and
full of panic, he had one last burst of energy. The bottom of the guy’s shoes
scraped against the loose pebbles on the ground as he beat his fists against
West’s arm. West pressed harder and the guy fell in a heap in the dirt.
West had been
using the choke hold since boot camp. Just shy of thirty-four and he could
still take a man down in less than four seconds.
Oorah.
