Ricky Bowen isn't the kind of man who lets people in. Not into his head, not into his heart, and definitely not into his bed. But Ezra Navarro had a way of dismantling Ricky's defenses with nothing more than a steady look and a quiet promise. One night together changed everything. By morning, Ezra was gone—without a word, leaving Ricky shattered.
Now, months later, an encrypted message drags Ricky back into the fight. Ezra is injured, on the run, and carrying proof of a cartel-backed child trafficking network—along with one devastating secret: one of the children on the list is the daughter of their fallen brother-in-arms. To save Ezra and protect the girl, Ricky must risk everything—including his heart—for the man who broke it.
