Navy SEAL Lieutenant Commander Mac García spent twenty years in the military but had no plans to retire. He didn't know what his life would be like without the SEALs, and through the years he saw the worst in the world. He'd be damned if he'd see another attack on American soil. Arriving home, he's faced with a whole different obstacle—twin toddlers. As the only family left to these little girls, he has to figure out what the next step in his life will be and how he'll manage raising two children.

A knock at Nicole Ryan's door delivers the news of a friend's death, and now she's alone to care for the twins until their guardian arrives. As their nanny since they were born, she can't picture being separated from them, let alone seeing them head to the other side of the United States. She'll fight for the right to keep the girls, because she doesn't know how else to deal with the loss of their father, and she can't bear losing them too.

Can two people from different walks of life come together to build a strong family for the twins? Or will destiny make them lose everything they hold dear?
