Former Navy SEAL James Cooper's life is about to get complicated.

Coop's new gig in private security with his brothers-in-arms doesn't allow time for distractions. Undercover in a small Oregon town, he infiltrates a dangerous militia intent on its own brand of justice. Running into an old love he'd thought long dead? That's a distraction he can't ignore.

A classified mission-gone-bad forces former Captain Jade McDowell into hiding until her sister is run off the road by a gang of thugs terrorizing her hometown. The last person Jade expects to bump into in Small Town USA is Coop, the man who still owns her heart...and who must never find out what happened on her final mission.

Their chance encounter puts a target on Jade's back. Coop is sure she knows her enemy, yet she's not talking. He lost her once; he's not about to let it happen again. But Jade's plan is to take her deadly secrets to the grave.

SEAL of Silence is a stand-alone romantic suspense in the Hearts of Valor series. Each of the novels in the series is its own story with HEA and no cliffhangers.
