Five years ago, the world believed Octavia Reynolds had been killed during a violent raid in Colombia. Betrayed, captured, and left for dead, she survived with the help of a daring DEA agent who risked everything to save her. Forced into hiding, she’s built a new life in the shadows, determined to stay dead to the world that abandoned her. Now, that fragile peace shatters. The DEA agent who saved her is murdered, leaving behind a cryptic message that ties Octavia’s past to her ex-boyfriend, Bellamy Chance. Bellamy has spent years coming to terms with her loss, burying his grief in his work as the leader of an elite K9 unit. But when his team is sent to Colombia on a mysterious extraction mission, nothing could prepare him for what awaits. Face to face with the woman he thought he’d never see again, Bellamy’s world is turned upside down. Octavia is alive, hunted by the same man who tried to kill her five years ago—a man who won’t stop until the secrets she holds are buried forever. Determined not to lose her again, Bellamy will risk everything to protect her. As the danger closes in and the truth about the past begins to unravel, Bellamy and Octavia must confront their shared history and the undeniable bond that still lingers between them. But with the shadows lurking at every turn, they’ll have to trust each other like never before to survive—and fight for a second chance at love. less

She was his unfinished business. Now, she’s his only mission. Retiring from the U. S. Coast Guard and moving to Hawai’i with three JSOC teammates was supposed to be a fresh start for Cooper Harris. Running a K9 unit with the Brotherhood Protectors was meant to be challenging — but not lethal. Then their latest op drops them into the heart of a human trafficking case, and suddenly, Cooper is back in the crosshairs... moreShe was his unfinished business. Now, she’s his only mission. Retiring from the U. S. Coast Guard and moving to Hawai’i with three JSOC teammates was supposed to be a fresh start for Cooper Harris. Running a K9 unit with the Brotherhood Protectors was meant to be challenging — but not lethal. Then their latest op drops them into the heart of a human trafficking case, and suddenly, Cooper is back in the crosshairs. The last thing he expects is to run into DEA Agent Nova Martin — the woman he hasn’t been able to forget. A handful of first dates shouldn’t have left such a lasting impression, but Nova is impossible to shake. Now, she’s been temporarily reassigned to the Big Island to track down a new drug ring, and Cooper isn’t sure if this is fate… or a disaster waiting to happen. He’s ready to take the risk — until Nova’s mission goes sideways, putting her at the center of a dangerous conspiracy and a target for enemies she can’t see. With her life and career on the line, Cooper and his team refuse to stand down. The Brotherhood Protectors can’t be bought, and neither can his loyalty to the woman who’s stolen his thoughts for far too long. Because this is one command Cooper won’t disobey — protect Nova at all costs… and fight for the future neither of them saw coming. less
