Partway through her third deployment to Bagram, Army nurse Lt. Erin Kelly is burned out and headed for a well-deserved leave back home in Montana. But when a mysterious stranger shows up and unintentionally drags her into harm's way with him, she suddenly finds herself an unwitting target of the U.S.'s number one high value target: the notorious American-born terrorist known as Rahim. Now stuck in a CIA safe house with the sexy operative, it's impossible to ignore the explosive attraction between them...or to forget that death is stalking them both.

Are the ones you don't see coming.

CIA operative Wade Sandberg is a man caught between worlds. He's spent the past three years living deep undercover amongst the enemy, infiltrating the network of the U.S.'s most wanted terrorist-until the kidnapping of a high-ranking American official forced him to blow his cover. Officially sidelined from the investigation to bring down Rahim, Wade knows he'll never be able to work in the region again. When he's sent back stateside with Erin, keeping his hands off her proves to be even harder than making the transition back into western civilization. And when Rahim takes his revenge by unleashing a devastating attack on U.S. soil, Wade will do everything in his power to protect the woman he loves and destroy the man who'd once trusted him with his life.
