Stay sober. Get deployed. Lead his platoon. Those are the
only things that matter to Sergeant First Class Reza
Iaconelli. What he wants is for everyone to stay out of
his
way; what he gets is Captain Emily Lindberg telling him
how
to deal with his men. Fort Hood's newest shrink is smart
as
a whip and sexy as hell. She's also full of questions-
about
the army, its soldiers, and the agony etched on Reza's
body
and soul.
. . . open his heart to love?
Emily has devoted her life to giving soldiers the care
they
need-and deserve. Little does she know that means facing
down the fierce wall of muscle that is Sergeant Iaconelli
like it's just another day at the office. When Reza agrees
to help her understand what makes a soldier tick, she's
thrilled. Too bad it doesn't help her unravel the sexy
warrior in front of her who stokes her desire and touches
a
part of her she thought long dead. He's the man who thinks
combat is the only escape from the demons that haunt him.
The man who needs her most of all . . .
