One night of blistering passion ... six years of total silence ...

The last person Gemma Halliday expects to arrive on her doorstep in the middle of a family crisis is Ben Mc Glade, the SAS soldier with whom she shared one stolen night of passion.

Honouring a promise he made to Gemma's brother, a fellow SAS soldier, to watch out for his sister in his absence, Ben bears news of a threat against her and her child.

Determined to protect the woman he can't forget, Ben vows to keep her and her infant son safe despite the memories of their night together that simmer beneath the surface. Giving way to these emotions is a sure way to endanger all their lives, a risk he dare not take.

While the threat to her and her infant son is real and horrifying, Gemma worries about protecting her vulnerable heart from Ben McGlade?
