✦✦✦
Rami
16 days of captivity.
The amount of drugs pumped into Ivy Hastings starved and beaten body should've been enough to kill her. Instead, a man breaking into her hellhole of a prison might be what stops her heart.
His dark and dangerous tattooed face is enough to promise death. He's not the same man who injects fiery drugs through her veins, day after day.
No, this man is different.
His clear blue eyes ensnarl her heart. His large, warm body is a safe haven she forgot existed. He's an angel cloaked in danger. A dark angel that saved her soul.
Rami Mitry turned down the job.
He'd been convinced, but not for the right reason. He'd done it for money. He was no hero. But as Ivy's life teeters in the balance, he prays to a God he'd never been sure of until now.
Ivy's emerald green eyes possess a strength that he's never witnessed—even on the battlefield. Somehow, she remains unbroken, and his admiration for her quickly flames into an inferno of desire.
The Cartel won't stop until they've gotten retribution. Rami might have saved Ivy from a life of slavery, only to bring her to a quicker death at the Cartel's hands.
But he'll fight to the death to protect what's his.

August
Witness Protection is supposed to protect its witnesses.
The long arms of the Mexican Cartel has found Gigi Hastings and will stop at nothing to see her demise. After an assassin storms her safe house and kills the U.S. Marshal protecting her, Gigi is on the run again. Numb and terrified she calls the one man she knows will move heaven and earth to protect her.
The man whose memory she's savored these lonely months in Witness Protection.
The man whose heart she broke two years ago.
August: Ex-black ops soldier.
Not much scares August Hick. But Gigi's life in danger? Hell, that does something to him he can't explain. He knew she was safe in Witness Protection—had to be—yet there was a part of him that needed to hear her voice.
But not the panicked, shock-coated voice he gets when she calls him one night. The Cartel is hunting her and wants her dead, and he'll do anything to get between her and them.
His unhealed pain destroys the ease that'd once been between them, but he swears to keep her safe. Even though his own heart is on the line.

Zain
He's become one of them.
Zain Mitry has lost everything. His name, his identity, and his humanity. All that's left is a cold shell of the alias he's become—an active member in Jaysh, a terrorist group.
Afghanistan isn't for the faint of heart, but fear doesn't reach his veins until he witnesses Jaysh's leader take a woman hostage from a protest. Her electrifying blue eyes capture Zain's and he's spellbound by her bold nature.
Despite the distance between his heart and reality, he can't turn a blind eye when the woman is attacked. He rushes to rescue her—and the first word she speaks to him—a word no one on this side of the world identifies him with. The only tether to his old life.
The name that will destroy him—Zain.
She's vowed to find a man she's never met.
Ex-FBI analyst Dana McAvery can't explain what drew her to Zain's case. But finding the missing Green Beret soldier became her mission.
But coming face-to-face with the man who's monopolized every spare moment of her mind shakes her. His tall, dark and formidable stare rocks her confidence. She expected to find a prisoner, a man in need of rescue—but a brutal killer stands before her.
