Arik Hawthorne prefers to be a loner. He has a dark secret to protect, and as a professional kick boxer, he is able to work off the wild energy that fills his life.

His whole world changes when he is partnered with Corinth Marya, and they are ordered to find and stop the creature that is killing innocent people in New Mexico.

If going after the Breacher isn't bad enough, he finds himself seriously and dangerously attracted to the Army lieutenant. There is no way he can let her find out about his real self, but neither can he deny the possibility that she may be his one and only chance at love and happiness.

They never foresee the danger that will threaten their lives, or the passion that will pose an even greater problem.

Dragons, anyone?
