Gage Hunter heads for pizza and a beer after his latest
op. Gage is a USMC sniper stationed at Bagram AFB in
Afghanistan and is looking to wind down and have some time
off after his last
mission. Gage
runs into his good friend Matt Culver and Matt's twin
sister Alexa at a pizza joint on base. Alexa is an A-10
Warthog combat pilot with the Air Force and is also
stationed at Bagram. Gage and Alexa hit it off right away. Alexa talks Gage into
helping her take a
shipment of goods from her family's
charity, Delos Charities, to an Afghan village. He gladly
tags along, wanting to get to know Alexa
a lot better. Just as they are meeting the village chief,
they are ambushed by Taliban soldiers. Alexa and several
other medical personnel (all ladies) are captured and
taken off to be sold as sex slaves. Gage and a SEAL team, along with Artemis Security, plan a
mission to rescue Alexa and the other ladies. Will they
find them in the intricate cave systems of the Hindu-Kush
Mountains before they are sold and carried across the
border? Will Gage and Alexa have time together to get to
know each other and see where their relationship is
headed? Can you truly fall in love in three days? Lindsay McKenna continues her Delos series with
Alexa's
story. BROKEN DREAMS is military romance at its best. The
story
is fast-paced and riveting with chemistry between the
main characters that is like dynamite. Gage and Alexa,
although tough military personnel when they have to be,
also have a surprising soft side that makes them
especially endearing. BROKEN DREAMS is a touching story
about loss and putting the pieces of your shattered
dreams back together. There are several twists and turns
to this story that will have you wondering where it will
head next. It certainly isn't predictable. I'm looking forward to where the Delos series is
headed next. I can't wait for Ms. McKenna's novella, SECRET
DREAM (out the end of January), which will add to Lia and
Cav's story from NOWHERE TO HIDE. Do not miss any of this
new series!
SUMMARY
Captain Alexa Culver takes one look at shy, quiet Marine sniper Gage Hunter
and feels an instant connection. But Gage has demons in his past that keep
him from giving it to their mutual attraction. Alexa believes Gage is worth
fighting for, and begins to slowly chip away at his defenses.
Gage Hunter has lost everyone he has ever loved. Lonely and broken, the last
thing he expects is to meet someone like Alexa Culver. The redheaded beauty
is confident and outgoing and makes Gage feel emotions he thought long
buried. But before he risks revealing his heart to her she is kidnapped by
the Taliban while on a humanitarian mission. Can Gage reach her before he
loses his chance for love forever?
