Sam Reston's life as a Navy SEAL ended with a blown
eardrum, but his security business is his new baby.
Providing private security allows him to go undercover in
places like the dock to gain information against those
indulging in crimes like drugs, weapons and human
trafficking. Sam's office is classy and elegant giving his
clients a sense of comfort, but undercover work leaves him
looking out of place when he shows up at work in the filthy
scruffy clothes of a scumbag with an odor to knock out a
bull. For at least two weeks, every time Sam sees his
beautiful business neighbor, he is in his undercover garb,
which clearly makes her uncomfortable and wary. Sam is a
sucker for a damsel in distress, so offering to open her
door for a price only seems fair.
Nicole Pearce gives up a great job overseas to take care of
her sick father in an attempt to make his last days
comfortable. Nicole's new translation company is finally
providing her with the necessary income she needs to pay
the medical bills, as well as the necessities, so every
deal she can get is an important one. Nicole begins
freaking out because the keys to her office can't be found
anywhere and an important call is only minutes away. That
is when the scruffy man from across the hall makes a deal
with her: for dinner, he will get her door open in less
than two minutes. She has no choice but to trust him and
accept his deal.
INTO THE CROSSFIRE is a savvy and exciting beginning to a
new series with intrigue and sexual tension to die for. A
fascinating read!
Former Navy SEAL Sam Reston keeps to himself. His world is
dangerous, uncertain, violent...and there is no room in it
for the helpless and weak. Then the most beautiful woman in
the world moves in next door to him . . . .
Nicole Pearce's life is complicated enough - with an ailing
father and a new business to worry about - and the last
thing she needs is to get involved with a secretive,
hard-bodied, hardheaded neighbor. Yet Sam leaves her
breathless - her body tingling with erotic desire - and it
takes every ounce of her fabled control to resist offering
herself to him, no strings attached. What she doesn't know
is that Sam Reston is on an undercover assignment . . . and
she's about to step into the crossfire.
Never has Sam ached for a woman so badly, and he's never
fallen in love before. Now that Nicole is in grave danger,
he will become her shield, and guard the tempting body he
longs to touch and taste. Because a terrorist plot hatched
half a world away is heading to their doorstep - and it can
only be derailed by one man and one woman.
