Intense Eric Monnette can't get skilled Riley D'Arpino out of his mind. He's a retired Navy SEAL who uses his skills to keep people safe. Except unanswered questions from his past has placed him in jeopardy himself.

Computer nerd Riley is set to retire from the US Army in three weeks. She has civilian life to figure out. She doesn't need her childhood crush riding to her and her commanding officer's rescue.

Okay, so said commanding officer took a couple bullets and their boat sank. Now they're facing near hurricane conditions, a stormy sea, limited fuel, and her commanding officer is going to die if they don't hustle him to safety soon. Oh, and then there are the bad guys who very much want to silence them. Permanently. Falling in love is certainly not on the agenda.
