- Baker & Taylor
In the aftermath of an attack that leaves her separated from the rest of the elite paramilitary team, communications expert Jina escapes to the desert determined to evade the enemy and reconnect with her unit before they are exfiltrated. - Baker & Taylor
A gruff, no-nonsense GO-Team leader who relies on the sensual voice of the team's communication expert to guide him through dangerous assignments becomes her rescuer in the aftermath of an attack that leaves her stranded on a deserted station. By the award-winning author ofTroublemaker . - HARPERCOLL
Jina Modell works in Communications for a paramilitary organization, and she really likes it. She likes the money, she likes the coolness factorâand it is very cool, even for Washington, D.C. She likes being able to kick terrorist butts without ever leaving the climate-controlled comfort of the control room...
But when Jina displays a really high aptitude for spatial awareness and action, sheâs reassigned to work as an on-site drone operator in the field with one of the GO-Teams, an elite paramilitary unit. The only problem is that she isnât particularly athletic, to put it mildly, and in order to be fit for the field, she has to learn how to run and swim for miles, jump out of a plane, shoot a gun . . . or else sheâll be out of a job.
Team leader Levi, call sign Ace, doesnât have much confidence in Jinaâwhom he dubbed Babe as soon as he heard her raspy, sexy voiceâmaking it through the rigors of training. The last thing he needs is some tech geek holding them back from completing a dangerous, covert operation. In the following months, however, no one is more surprised than he when Babe, who hates to sweat, begins to thrive in her new environment, displaying a grit and courage that wins her the admiration of her hardened, battle-worn teammates. Whatâs even more surprising is that the usually very disciplined GO-Team leader canât stop thinking about kissing her smart, stubborn mouth . . . or the building chemistry and tension between them.
Meanwhile, a powerful congresswoman is working behind the scenes to destroy the GO-Teams, and a trap is set to ambush Leviâs squad in Syria. While the rest of the operatives set off on their mission, Jina remains at the base to control the surveillance drone, and the base is suddenly attacked with explosives. Thought dead by her comrades, Jina escapes to the desert where, brutally tested beyond measure, she has to figure out how to stay undetected by the enemy and make it to her crew before theyâre exfiltrated from the country.
But Levi never leaves a soldier behind, especially the brave woman heâs fallen for. Heâs bringing back the woman they left behind, dead or alive.
