By Lethal Force

Joey

Misunderstandings didn't end things between me and Ford, my granite teddy bear of a marine. His silence sent me running from his arms-straight into a nightmare. After that, I was little more than a statistic. Too broken for anyone to love. Least of all, myself.



Disappearing from his life was the best choice. The only choice. Until, twenty years later, I'm being held hostage, and there's one name my soul cries out for. But even if Ford could find me, the woman I've become is beyond rescue.



Ford

I've spent two decades trying to forget her. First as a marine, then as co-owner of Second Sight, one of the world's elite investigative and security firms. Nothing fills the void Joey left behind. Until one phone call upends my world.



Nothing will stop me from bringing Joey home alive and safe. Whole? That's another mission that's nothing but a minefield. We're not even close to home free-because her kidnapper isn't a man who likes to lose. And he'll do anything to exact revenge.
