Can the bad boy protect the good girl... Zeke Slaughter played two sides against the middle and found himself in a world of hurt. Luckily, there was one person in the world who cared enough about his rogue ass to save it. But neither his sister nor the Base Branch, the UN special forces division she works for, can help him sort through the lies, money, violence, and corruption he's gotten himself into. Himself...and others. Yep, he'd dragged his team into the mix. Pin another Medal of Honor to his chest for that rookie move. Oh wait, mercenaries don't get badges of honor. Greer Britton joined the US Elite's brand of private military to please her father, a third-generation Marine and Senate-seat legacy that failed to attain the brass of his blood before him. She doesn't want to think he sabotaged her promising career in the Marines, but... When she ends up a high-priced sex slave for the Russian mob she'd been commissioned to infiltrate with her closed-off leader, Zeke Slaughter, she questions her dad's motive for having her placed on the team. It's up to Zeke to save his team and complete his missions without getting killed--and without crossing the line with a pristine beauty who has no business in any military, much less surrounded by a horde of violent, horny bastards...himself included.
