The mission always comes first…. Former SAS Lieutenant Sam Locke is on a mission to locate an underworld figure, missing for fifteen years. New intelligence reveals he is living in the small rural town of Willaroi Downs, biding his time to steal a rare diamond. Sam arrives in Willaroi Downs to discover not one but five men matching his target’s description. All have secrets that if made public, will rock this close-knit community. And then there is Kallie McNeal, the owner of the diamond and far too tempting for her own good and his sanity. Cynical where love is concerned, Sam is staggered by his growing feelings for Kallie, an impulsive and vibrant young woman with close links to all his suspects. She was seduced the minute she looked into his eyes... Kallie McNeil’s dream is to escape the heat and unforgiving landscape of Willaroi and the men who only want her for her land and precious diamond. Then Sam Locke walks into her life. Within hours of meeting him she’s convinced; this tall, rugged stranger is the man she’s been waiting for. Although it seems he will need a little persuading. Then she discovers he’s after her diamond and, along with others she’s trusted all her life, has lied to her?

Former SAS Captain James Talarico (Talos) is on a mission to locate a ring of people traffickers before they succeed in killing the person who can identify them. Talos saved the life of this beautiful young woman and delivered her baby on a previous mission. Unable to stop thinking about Jane, Talos tracks her down and ends up saving her life again. Now he won’t trust anyone else to keep her safe. Nor can he ignore his growing attraction to her. Yet the perfect solution will place her and the baby in much greater danger. Jane Rossini didn’t know she was married to a mobster’s son until she walked out of her short-­‐lived marriage and ended up as a hostage in the middle of a gun battle. She owes her life to a handsome giant who makes her heart race wildly. Yet she refuses to commit to another man unless she can be sure he truly loves her. Under the constant threat of death and with the police insisting she be relocated and given a new identity, Jane decides to take control of her life. She demands Talos and his Special Ops friends take her with them to Vietnam, so she can identify the ring members before they succeed in killing her. Little does she know what awaits them.
