The team is tasked with providing security for an architect firm who is designing the new US Embassy in Caracas, Venezuela. The owner of the company, Architect Quinn Cole is the widow of one of the DIS operators they lost in this very country, bringing back terrible memories for Dagger at the pain of his brother’s loss. He and Quinn parted on terrible terms, and she has more reasons than feeling he was responsible for her husband’s death to despise him. Since Caracas isn’t considered a secure location, the SEALs are deployed to protect the people working on the project. But Dagger can’t keep his eyes off Quinn. He harbored a secret crush on his brother’s wife and was instrumental in giving them two precious gifts. The worse the instability gets, the more protective he is of her, and the more she pushes back, leading down a road he shouldn’t travel. But Quinn refuses to heed the warnings, bravely moving forward with the plans, her driving personality making Dagger lose his perspective in both his job and his heart.
Quinn has something to prove and she’s not going to get railroaded out of Caracas until she accomplishes her task, even with her former brother-in-law involved in her protection. She has so much to prove to him–she’s back on her feet, she can handle herself, and she still blames him for her husband’s death. But as the mission progresses, so does her perspective on Dagger and her suddenly growing feelings, something that should be forbidden, but she can’t seem to stop her change of heart. She refuses to be cowed by the conflict in Caracas, relying on the SEALs and steadfast Dagger to keep her safe. He’s the kind of man that draws a woman’s eyes, but his good looks aren’t only skin deep as she finally discovers what an irresistible and complex man he is. For the first time since her husband’s death, she feels that she has something to live for and failure just isn’t an option, even in the midst of professional and intimate danger.
