Failure isn't an option for this Navy SEAL.

When Jade Dalton escapes a ruthless kidnapper on the trail of a multi–million dollar necklace, she flees to the one place no one will find her: her estranged father's Texas ranch. Booker Knox is also on his way to Dry Gulch. After a potentially dangerous situation thrusts her into his arms, the Navy SEAL appoints himself Jade's personal bodyguard.

It isn't every day Booker finds himself being kissed by a gorgeous stranger. Except Jade's a fugitive from justice who's also being hunted by a determined killer. Now Booker will do whatever it takes to protect the beautiful big–city event planner. Failure isn't an option. Neither is walking away when this is all over.
