DIAGNOSIS: DANGER
After a failed attempt on her life, nurse Deborah Lewis knows her suspicions of foul play in the pediatric unit must be true. And her timely rescue by Cole Strachan—her ex-fiancé—allows her a second chance to prove it. The former navy SEAL who broke her heart is the last man she wants to see…but exactly the one she needs. Though Cole can’t give her the future he once promised, he makes a new vow to help her uncover the truth and stop the culprits. And he has to keep this promise, because more than Deborah’s heart is at stake—this time it’s her life.
Navy SEAL Defenders: Bound by honor and dedicated to protection
A strange look swept over his face, like a million regrets rushing through him at once.
“Please, Deborah,” Cole said. “Let me take you home. It’s not safe.”
He picked up her bag, his muscles flexing, and she remembered how safe he used to make her feel. Now she felt nothing but regret that she’d allowed him into her life.
She took the bag. “I’ll take my chances alone.”
“You’re letting your emotions override your common sense. You need protection.”
He was right. There was a ball of fear in her belly, telling her to be cautious, but she ignored it. Yes, Cole could provide protection, but at what cost to her heart?
“I’ll take it from here.” She stalked out the door, ignoring her conflicting emotions. Cole’s presence could protect her, but every fiber of her body cried out to run from him.
When she reached the parking lot, she heard them.
Footsteps behind her.
She spun around. “Cole, is that you?”
No reply.
“Who’s there?”
A menacing voice rumbled, “Your worst nightmare.”
