The last thing he wants is to trek into the jungle
to save the President’s daughter.
Shepherd “Shep” Barlow left the military behind. All
he wants is to stay on his Colorado mountain—alone, with no interruptions, and
no people. He especially likes to avoid people.
Then his former commander arrives, asking him to
risk his life on a deadly mission to Central America. A mission to rescue the
archeologist daughter of the President of the United States.
Once a member of a covert Ghost Ops team, Shep has
the skills to get in quietly and rescue Ms. Sinclair. And as much as he wishes
otherwise, he can’t leave an innocent woman in danger.
Hayden Sinclair loves her work. It keeps her far
away from the liars, cheats, and phonies in Washington D.C. But when she’s
abducted from her archeological dig in Nicaragua, she’s plunged into a
life-or-death situation. Her captors plan to use her as a bargaining chip, and
Hayden knows she has to escape.
What she never expected was to collide with the
world’s biggest, grumpiest rescuer.
On the run in the jungle with six and a half feet of
rugged, muscular, scowling man, she finds Shep rude and annoying. But as her
captors ruthlessly hunt them, she also discovers a man who’ll risk his own life
to protect hers.
Neither of them are looking for love, especially
when they have to fight to survive…besides, there could never be a happy ending
for the daughter of the President and a grumpy, battle-scarred soldier, could
there?
This one is with Shep from book 1 and it was worth
the wait. He is called in to rescue the president’s daughter, Hayden. They
connect while on a run in a South American jungle. I loved how she fell first
and went after her man when he was all about burying his head in the sand as he
felt she could do better. I just loved this book.
