Dr. Liliana Carrera almost lost her life to Wardwell scientists gone wild . . .

She doesn’t want to have any part of another science experiment involving human guinea pigs, but she also can’t ignore innocent victims, like her new patient Jesse Bradford.  A former NFL superstar, Jesse was forced to undergo Wardwell’s experimental treatments when a genetic bone disease cuts short his promising football career.  Now Jesse’s amazing body is like nothing Liliana has ever seen before, but the cure Jesse wanted has come at a very high price. His body is almost no longer human and the genes implanted by Wardwell create incredible strength, but also frightening rage.  As a survivor of violence, that rage scares Liliana more than she wants to admit, especially when she finds herself attracted to Jesse.

Jesse Bradford would trade almost anything to return to the game he loves. . .

Anything except his family.  When a black ops group threatens his family, Jesse has no choice but to go along with their plans and keep his secrets from Liliana.  But it’s tough for Jesse to ignore her kindness and the way her gentle healing touch rocks him to his core.  As passion awakens between them, the secrets Jesse is keeping will become ever more dangerous.  Is the love growing between them strong enough to fight evil men intent on changing the face of humanity?  Or will lies and mistrust break the fragile bonds and bring the risk of death?
