Parker Conroy moved to Alaska to be alone. His military career in Ghost Ops ended with an explosion and three torturous weeks of captivity. It's left him scarred, wanting to avoid people, and hating being touched.

When US Marshal Jenna Sheriden knocks on his door, he has no time for the attractive marshal. But she isn't taking no for an answer.

A dangerous fugitive is on the loose, and he happens to be a rogue Ghost Ops soldier.

Jenna Sheriden lives and breathes being a marshal. Her past has left her with something to prove. She has zero interest in love, relationships, or anything that slows her down.

She needs help hunting a deadly murderer. She needs Parker Conroy.

The gruff, lean loner radiates a dark intensity she can't ignore, but he has the skills to help her track down her quarry. Thrust together, they're sharing the same bed, the same tent, and working together every hour of the day.

As they draw closer to catching the killer, Jenna sees under Park's scarred exterior to the man beneath. A man who tempts her in ways no one ever has before. A man who will do anything to keep her safe.

If they survive this hunt, then Jenna knows she'll have the biggest challenge of all-convincing her scarred hero to take a chance on love.
