A suspicious car accident claims the lives of two archaeologists. But a brutal mix of family secrets, deep pockets and desperate greed threatens to conceal the truth about the tragedy. In the wake of her parents’ sudden deaths, Brynnan’s billionaire uncle rushes to her side, along with his newly hired head-of-security—former special forces operative, Jack McKerrick. Jack is tasked with ensuring Brynnan’s safety, but when a gunman takes aim at her, Jack learns about Brynnan’s painful past, and starts to suspect she’s in more danger than she realizes. Criminal activity, dating back to 19th century Texas, triggers the deadly course of events that has Jack and Brynnan dodging bullets and praying they live to see justice served.

Her parents are dead. And Bryn Marsh doesn't want to believe allegations from the FBI—and known criminals—about her deceased mother. Then her uncle reveals an old secret. And her world turns upside down. Jack McKerrick would do anything to protect Bryn—as her billionaire uncle's head of security—and as a man who wants to spend the rest of his life with her. But when a nineteenth-century corpse and new deadly threats collide with a Cat 4 hurricane, Jack will need a miracle to keep Bryn alive.

Jack and Bryn’s December wedding is fast approaching. But a blackmailer’s plans threaten to derail the Christmas-themed ceremony before it starts. Two days before the wedding, the caterer attracts a sniper, and Jack needs to know if the woman baking their wedding cake is an innocent victim or complicit in her brother’s shady business dealings. The happy couple would love to focus on each other, but they can’t ignore the growing danger when an ominous warning from Bryn’s incarcerated grandfather is followed by a shooting at the caterer’s shop. Then a chilling call from Jack is cut short. And Bryn fears the worst.
