Protocol says they shouldn’t work.
Senior Chief ‘Picasso’ Waverly is a man of order. As a Navy SEAL Team Leader, his life is defined by rules, protocols, and the ironclad control that keeps his men alive. He doesn’t have time for distractions, especially not the chaotic, rule-breaking kind with fiery red hair.
Gabriella O’Reilly is a force of nature. As a humanitarian aid coordinator, she knows that when lives are on the line, red tape is just something to be cut. She’s driven by a desperate empathy that Picasso views as reckless liability.
When a catastrophic earthquake levels Mexico City, they are forced to work together. But the destruction of the quake is only the beginning. As a ruthless cartel targets the most vulnerable survivors, Picasso and Gabriella are thrust into a deadly game of cat and mouse. Trapped in the ruins, stripped of their defenses, the friction between them ignites into a searing attraction neither can deny.
But survival is only the first test. As duty calls them to ‘different planets,’ Picasso must decide if he’s willing to risk his heart on the only variable he can’t control—or if he’ll let the woman who saved his soul walk away forever.
Instinct says they’re inevitable.
