Foster Halsey has been burned by life, by love.

Recruited to the Task Force 779 elite team after a nasty divorce, Foster only wants to serve his country. He has no interest in anything except the art of explosives and saving lives. After nearly losing a team mate, and witnessing the pain his family went through, Foster is more determined than ever to remain unattached.

Until a mission sends his team to Mexico to rescue the estranged daughter of a CIA official.

Their attraction is explosive.

But she's been burned worse than him.

Everett Gaines was searching for answers.

After finishing college, Everett only wanted some R&R after a troubling discovery. She wanted to lay back on the beaches of Porta Vallarta and enjoy some time alone. Life has a way of kicking her when she's already down though and soon she becomes the victim of a kidnapping.

Acts so violent and gruesome that she never imagined are forced upon her until a savior explodes through her prison door. After a failed escape, Foster vows to protect her at all costs. With risk to his own life, Everett see's something in the solitary man.

A longing to be someone's everything at a time when she needs him most.

One Explosive Encounter leaves them breathless and Foster wants more.

But Everett pushes him away. Refusing to hear him out and why they could be more. Foster won't let go though and when sinister forces come rushing back, Everett is forced to rely on Task Force 779 to keep her safe.

After the pain ends and secrets come to light, will Everett still be alive to make the choice her heart desire's or will Foster be left an empty shell from a lost love?

4 Stars

This is the second book in the series and we have met Foster "Chaos" and had a little bit to get to see is passion and dedication. It comes out full force in this book.

When the mission is bring home a kidnapped woman, there is bound to be some feelings involved in the extraction process. This time it was different for Chaos though. He got to spend extra time with Everett and for whatever reason she felt safe with him, this only strengthening their bond. Not entirely sure how to process his feeling as he had given up on women after his failed marriage. But there is still a pull he can't ignore.

Everett is slowly recovering from the worst nightmare. The way she was violated would bring down the strongest of women but she is determined to try and move past this. The love of her mother helping her. When there is sight of more trouble she finds the one person who truly makes her feels safe once again. She is so confused about why this is all happening her to but her attraction to Foster just seems to keep sneaking in.

Can they find the true threat and help Everett be free of worry? Will Foster convince her that they are worth the try?

I did feel that the love connection went a little faster than my liking. It seemed to loose a little bit of the connection with the characters. I did enjoy the story though and love the family feeling you get from the men of Task Force 779 and their women.
