"...packs a punch!" - Marcie, reviewer
Changing her name isn't enough to keep her safe.
Search and Rescue operative Max Logan's assignment was supposed to be simple. Protect Emma Chastaine until she can testify against her boss. But a violent attack turns his routine operation into a race against the clock. Now, this former Anchorage PD recover diver must use all of his skills to keep his new client safe—while keeping his past mistakes from haunting them both.
Emma knew she'd become a target the minute she discovered the discrepancies in the senator's election campaign budget, but she's determined to do the right thing. Forced to relocate to an unfamiliar city under an assumed name, she tries to start over. Until her boss sends someone to tie up loose ends. With Max protecting her, Emma gets her first glimpse of true happiness. But when she learns her protector hasn't been honest about his past, can she ever forgive him?
As the gravitational pull between Max and Emma intensifies, they must learn to trust one another before the killer hits his target.
