When Captain Bratt Lewis returns to command with a fresh start and hopes of reclaiming lost time, he quickly discovers that nothing—and no one—has remained the same. Rachel James is struggling under the weight of her failures, the Colonel has played dirty, and a dangerous new player has entered the game: Antoni Mascherano, a brilliant biochemist and ruthless mafia leader who's set his sights on claiming the tenacious lieutenant as his own. As old grudges resurface and carefully constructed relationships begin to fracture, long-buried secrets demand to be heard and passionate hearts refuse to stay hidden. This second installment turns up the heat and stakes as love, loyalty, and survival collide in ways no one saw coming.
