A wounded pilot finds refuge in the arms of a brave officer in the New York Times–bestselling author's "rip-roaring contemporary military romance" (Publishers Weekly, starred review).
Temporarily assigned to the Shadow Squadron in a troubled region of Afghanistan, Chief Warrant Officer and pilot Leah Mackenzie is no stranger to combat—even if most of her physical and emotional scars are courtesy of her vicious ex. Still, she's got a bad feeling about picking up a team of stranded SEALs. A feeling that's all too justified once enemy fire hits their helicopter . . .
SEAL Kell Ballard's goal was to get the injured pilot out of harm's way and find shelter deep in a labyrinth of caves. It's a place of dark intimacy, where Leah finds unexpected safety in a man's arms. Where prohibited attraction burns brightly. And where they'll hide until the time comes to face the enemy outside . . . and the enemy within their ranks.

      Starred review from March 23, 2015
      McKenna’s dazzling eighth Shadow Warriors novel (after Taking Fire) is a rip-roaring contemporary military romance with heart and heat. Chief Warrant Officer Leah Mackenzie escaped her abusive ex-husband—also an officer—and her father, both of whom treated her like property. She’s certain she can survive anything, even a helicopter crash in Taliban territory. SEAL Kell Ballard pulls Leah out of her downed bird and quickly falls in love with the brave Army officer. As the two dart in and out of enemy caves trying to stay alive, their bond grows iron-strong, and their trust in each other is complete. When Leah’s ex-husband tries to take revenge for her “betrayal,” Kell and Leah must figure out how to route around him and get to their happy ending. McKenna elicits tears, laughter, fist-pumping triumph, and most of all, a desire for the next tale in this powerful series. Agent: Ethan Ellenberg, Ethan Ellenberg Agency.

      With the publication of Danger Close (originally released as Valkyrie) in 2000, McKenna is often considered the founding mother of contemporary military romance. Not that such stories didn't exist before, but her signature combination of alpha males, tough females, special forces operatives, and pulse-pounding action in current hot spots became the template for the genre. McKenna likes to put her women in extreme danger, trusting that her heroes will be strong enough to save the day and bring the most devastated victim back from the brink. The series has eight print and ebooks and two e-only titles. For those who can't get enough of this author, her "Jackson Hole" series (Night Hawk, LJ 2/15/16) focuses on a Wyoming ranch, owned and operated by an ex-SEAL and his K-9 partner, that provides jobs, homes, and happy ever afters for an increasing number of vets.
