      MARITAL INVESTIGATION

      With one accusation, army officer Cassidy Matthews’s name, reputation—and life—are on the line. A Special Forces soldier insists that Cassy’s Fort Bragg-based unit is smuggling drugs. And the accuser? It’s Cassy’s handsome, stubborn ex-husband, Major Shane Logan. Shane knows Cassy is innocent, which is why he’s sure she’s being set up to take the fall. Proving it, though, means working together...and trying to ignore the feelings they still share. The closer they get—to the truth and each other—the more the danger grows from a ruthless criminal who’ll stop at nothing to destroy them both.

      Shane’s voice dropped with a level of gravity she’d never heard before. “You have to listen to me.”

      Cassidy shook her head, steeling herself against the sight of her ex-husband. She couldn’t stop herself from noticing he’d filled out over the past few years. Brown hair still spiked forward over his forehead, but the green eyes she’d first fallen for had darkened and grown wiser. His army combat uniform rode his shoulders in a way that spoke of lean muscle and sheathed strength.

      This older version of Shane Logan carried himself like a man.

      As always, the woman in her wanted to react to the man in him. Jerking her chin to the side, she called up her soldier facade. “Today’s not the day for my ex-husband to step back into my life.”

      Something flashed in his eyes. “I understand that. And this isn’t by choice.” Shane took one short step into the room, but it was enough to back Cassidy tight against the wall. “You’re not safe, Cassy.”

      He had no idea.
