Zusatztext "Megan Crane’s mix of tortured ex-special ops heroes! their dangerous missions! and the rugged Alaskan wilderness is a sexy! breathtaking ride!" — New York Times  bestselling author Karen Rose! on  Seal's Honor Informationen zum Autor Megan Crane Klappentext Dangerous secrets force Caradine Scott on the run from Grizzly Harbor-with Alaska Force leader Isaac Gentry in hot pursuit-in the irresistible new romantic suspense from USA Today bestselling author Megan Crane. After an explosion that should have killed her, Caradine barely escaped her criminal family by leaving her old identity behind. These days she runs the Water's Edge Cafe in a rugged little town on the edge of nowhere, vowing never to let anyone close to her again. After his career in the military, Isaac is back home playing the part of an unassuming local in Grizzly Harbor, while also overseeing Alaska Force's special ops work as the founder and commanding officer he once was in the Marines and beyond. He has better things to do than obsess over a woman who claims she hates him, but every glimpse he gets of the vulnerability beneath her prickly exterior is a distraction . . . and a challenge he can't ignore. When Caradine's demons catch up with her, her cafe isn't the only thing that blows up. Her past pushes them together, and closer to a future that's been waiting for them all this time. They just have to survive long enough to enjoy it. Leseprobe 9781894805522|excerpt   Crane / DELTA FORCE DEFENDER   One   The call came in at 2:47 a.m.   Isaac Gentry wasn’t asleep because Isaac rarely slept, especially when Alaska Force was running active missions.   And Alaska Force always had active missions.   As the owner and leader of the most elite group of ex–­special forces operatives in the world—­?­the kind of individuals who didn’t think it was particularly heroic to save the world, because it was simply their job, in and out of active military service—­?­Isaac had long since accepted that monitoring ongoing situations came with the territory. His cabin in Fool’s Cove, a remote and hard-­?­to-­?­reach spot on the back side of a distant, isolated island in the Alaskan Panhandle, was outfitted with enough tech to track his people wherever they found themselves on the globe.   “Report,” he said into his comm unit by way of an answer, the way he always did when a member of his team called in.   “There’s a fire,” Griffin Cisneros, known ice man and almost supernaturally self-­?­possessed marine sniper, belted out. Sounding in no way self-­?­possessed or icy or really like himself at all.   Isaac’s gut twisted. Because Griffin wasn’t on a mission. Griffin was supposed to be at home in his cute little house on the other side of the island in picturesque Grizzly Harbor, tucked up with his woman and enjoying the relatively mild June weather.   “Report,” he said again, though he already knew it was going to be bad. And worse, local. “Is it happening again?”   The tiny fishing village of Grizzly Harbor was supposed to be too far away from anything to attract attention. It was on a small island in a little-­?­traveled part of Southeast Alaska’s Inside Passage, where nothing ever happened. Something Isaac knew personally and well, having grown up here.   But the past couple of years there’d been a little too much excitement in the middle of nowhere. It had even drawn down the attention of the Alaska State Troopers, who’d needed convincing that Alaska Force were the good guys. There’d been deaths, a mad preacher with a boatload of explosives, actual deployed explosives onshore and off, two kidnappings and a cult, plus acts of criminal mischief ranging from annoying to life-­?­threatening.   Not exactly what Isaac had in mind. He’d chosen Grizzly Harbor as his base when he’d start...
