OUT NOW!
Zephirin "Gator" LaBauve is shocked to find that not only is the new ambassador a woman, but a woman from his past, Isabelle Theriot. They get off on the wrong foot right at the get-go. The tense situation escalates between them and not just in a professional way, when sparks fly, until Gator begins to get to know Isabelle. He discovers that this woman was a hero in every sense of the word. Isabelle can't believe her mission as the ambassador is already compromised the moment she comes face-to-face with the SEAL she'd met during a dangerous time in both their lives. She's got classified information she has to keep secret, or blow the chance to discover who was behind the murder of the previous ambassador and his family. She has no intention of failing. She might have been a victim in the past, but she refused to allow that to happen to her country. They're willing to risk everything...even their hearts.
Isabelle is saddened by the loss of the ambassador, but she’s been sent on a mission, and everything regarding that mission is classified. Keeping secrets from Navy SEALs could become problematic and soon gets tense once Gator recognizes her as the woman who had saved him and his teammate. Gator isn’t keen on her being in charge and thinks a new ambassador has a target on her back, but he has his orders. She tells him that’s why he will be her bodyguard. As they dig deeper, they discover where the threat is coming from and why. It’s a world-changing revelation. Can Isabelle and Gator manage to handle not only the secrets she keeps, but the political, emotional and physical aspects of an affair that both of them may want to become permanent…if they survive.
