All Joel has to do is one simple thing. Make sure he never dies. Joel Lattimore has tried to avoid Ayesha Savea. Keep her at arm's length. Deny fate. Shield his heart. He's raw from his divorce. She's a single mother of two boys who's devoted her life to them after the devastating loss of their father. Even worse, he's now a member of the same Black Ops ghost unit the boys' father served on until his death. So, if they pursue a relationship, she could lose him exactly the same way she lost her husband. But he and Ayesha have powerful chemistry. Their attraction is intense. Too intense. Pretending the feelings aren't there used to be the safest option. However, the feelings continue to simmer until they're no longer beneath the surface. And despite their best efforts to deny fate, an attraction this intense will eventually always become too powerful to resist.
