Sgt Gabe Thompson is in Afghanistan on his second tour. When his next mission is to escort UN representatives he doesn't expect his heart to react the way it does to Alexis Garcia, the feisty volunteer.

Alexis Garcia is a good girl who has left a boyfriend and her family at home while she completes a goal of hers with the UN. She hates that Gabe flirts with her and doesn't respect the fact that she has a boyfriend back home that she is devoted to.

Yet when an event puts their lives in danger will Gabe and Alexis be able to work together to escape the dangers around them? When it is clear that they both have feelings for the other will that get in the way or will it push Gabe to limits he has never known to protect Alexis?

I really enjoyed this book and the tension between Gabe and Alexis. It was clear that Alexis was a good girl who to a certain degree was lost within herself. She had certain goals but was afraid to deviate from that. Gabe was able to get get under her skin and shake the beliefs that Alexis held.

Gabe was such a good guy in how far he was willing to go to protect Alexis. Yes it was his job but at the same time it still shows the level of dedication that he had and it takes a certain person to put their own life on the line to protect others.

I can't wait to read the next book in the series to see where everything goes as this one ends in a bit of a cliff-hanger!!
