As a soldier in the Elite Ops Corps, Ryan Day has one mission, protect his new assignment, Seleina Vaughn, from the danger lurking around her at all costs.

He never counted on the vivacious and exotic woman stealing his heart and leaving him panting for more. Seleina sets his pulse pounding and heats up his life.

Will Ryan be able to stay focused long enough to keep Seleina safe and out of harm's way?

Excerpt:

Seleina wobbled on her feet as she fought to reclaim a safe distance of space from his body and was about to tumble back down to the ground. In a flash, two burly arms gripped her thin arms tightly and held her steady until she regained her balance.

"Get your hands off me!" she screamed, knowing there was no one else around to hear her desperate cries.

"Seleina, it's okay. I'm not going to hurt you."

The man's voice was deep, yet not menacing, as he spoke in a casual whisper. The ethereal voice left Seleina feeling light headed and unnerved, all in the same heartbeat.

He had spoken her name as though he was own familiar terms with her, but she was positive she had never laid eyes on this stranger before this awkward moment.

He leaned closer and she shrank away again and squinted her eyes, inwardly preparing her body for some type of personal invasion. To her surprise, none came. The man had stopped mere inches from her face and held his position until she reluctantly met his intense gaze once again.

"You cannot come here anymore, it is no longer safe."

The second she dared to stare into the dark pools of his pupils she felt an instant calm come over her entire being. All of the muscles in her body relaxed all at once. Seleina felt herself go flaccid in his arms.

"Who are you?" she asked weakly, her breath dragging from her lips.

"That's not an important matter, right now. You are not safe here. I have to get you inside. I'll explain later when your mind has rested and you are ready to listen."

The fingertips of his hand touched her smooth toffee brown forehead and, in an instant, Seleina's eyes closed completely and darkness overcame her.
