Crossfire

Five years ago Anna Carson left Courage Bay…and SWAT commander Flint Mauro.

Now she's back, and assigned to Flint's team during a hostage-taking at City Hall. Two armed gunmen have barricaded the second floor, holding city officials at gunpoint with an assault rifle and plastic explosives. City Hall is no place for old regrets—least of all under the barrel of an assault rifle.

Flint is furious. SWAT is no place for a woman—especially Anna.

He couldn't handle it then. But can he handle it now? Facing down a homemade bomb leaves no room for pride—only instant trust.

All Flint knows is that Anna is determined to go in and save an injured hostage. And Flint won't be letting her go in alone…. Posing as a doctor and nurse, they step inside the locked conference room to treat the wounded aide while waiting for their chance to strike.

One barricaded room. Two former lovers walking into the line of fire.
