About the Book
What’s a Marine brat to do?
Calista Meyers is a world-famous, soon-to-be-ex-supermodel. After arriving for a fashion shoot in Cartagena, Colombia, she realizes her agent has misled her about the nature of her last modeling assignment. Paramilitary leader Jaime Cruz paid her slimy agent a lot of money to get Callie to his part of the world. Cruz has threatened to kidnap and kill her younger brothers if she attempts to leave the country.
Callie calls on her childhood friend Keely Walsh-Maddox and Keely’s husband Ren, the owner of Security Specialists International, to help her. SSI sends operative Risto Smith to rescue Callie.
He’s a man you can rely on.
The former Marine has had a thing for Callie ever since he’d first seen her picture on a magazine cover. But Risto knows he isn’t nearly good enough for a lady like her. She’s an assignment and can be nothing else. And she definitely needs his help … at least until she’s safely home in Chicago! Easy job, done in a day. What isn’t easy is walking away from the woman who stirs his deepest desire.
Callie knows Risto is just the man for her and decides to use the close quarters of their escape from Colombia to convince the stubborn male. When Risto leaves her safely in Panama and disappears, Callie is upset, but not defeated. But after two months passes with no word from Risto and with her enemy Cruz in the US and back on her trail, Callie once again turns to Risto for protection.
This time, it would be a cold day in hell before Callie allows Risto to turn his back on their love.
