She prosecuted criminals. He eliminated them. Now they're the perfect team.
Federal prosecutor Gina Rice has spent three years watching cartel cases collapse through bureaucratic delays and corruption. When her investigation into Victor Sanchez's regional drug network leads her to the Desert Wolves compound, she expects to find criminals. Instead, she discovers Talon?the pack's demolitions expert whose surgical strikes have eliminated more cartel infrastructure than federal agencies destroyed in decades.
Elite. Precise. Deadly. Everything about him screams special operations, and his three-year campaign against drug cartels has achieved what her legal cases couldn't: actual justice.
When cartels target her for elimination, legal procedures become lethal liability.
Talon has been systematically destroying cartel operations across Arizona and Nevada, his explosives expertise creating permanent solutions to criminal problems. When corrupt police and cartel soldiers attack the federal prosecutor documenting his work, his protective instincts explode into coordinated warfare. She's brilliant, fearless, and everything he never knew he needed in a partner.
Now she's his to claim. His to protect. His to love.
From prosecution to partnership. From legal briefs to live fire. From enemies to everything.
Racing through the desert on his Harley with bullets flying and corrupt cops in pursuit, Gina realizes she's found her home with a man who solves problems with C-4 and tactical precision. Talon's mission becomes her purpose. His dangerous world becomes the only place she belongs. Together, they're building something neither law enforcement nor criminal organizations can stop.
But when corporate interests fund professional military contractors to eliminate their partnership, Gina and Talon must choose: hide behind legal technicalities or expose the truth through direct action. Either way, the Desert Wolves protect their own.
Even if it means war.
