Undercover as a journalist, international assassin, Kyla Russell is performing her last assignment in Afghanistan. She baulks when she discovers her mission is to kill a man who doesn't deserve it. Kyla wants out of the business, but her handler would rather see her dead than let her go. Trapped by the Taliban with a team of mercenaries, her only way out is to allow herself to be swept into a daring rescue by a sexy former Navy SEAL. The mercenaries and Kyla are transported back to the States and rehomed in Yellowstone. With his team of former SEALs turned mercenaries, Stone sets up a Yellowstone division of Brotherhood Protectors at his father’s lodge in West Yellowstone. Struggling with his attraction to the ballsy journalist, Stone hires Kyla as the team communications expert not realizing the full extent of her military skills or his growing feelings for her. When her past comes to call, the team rallies around her. Together, Stone and Kyla fight the enemy determined to silence an assassin and surrender to their attraction for each other.
