Burned

A woman with a dark past...

Forced into hiding after her NSA-sanctioned task force lands on a terrorist hit list, cryptologist Zahra Gill must rely on the skill and experience of her Titanium Security teammates to keep her safe—including former Force Recon Marine Sean Dunphy. He has the unnerving ability to shatter her concentration by just walking into the same room. She's sworn to keep him at a distance, but his charm and protectiveness weaken her resolve. Drawn to his strength and magnetic sensuality, she finally gives in to the passion she's denied herself for so long...even though she risks losing her heart in the process.

The man strong enough to win her trust...

Sean's had his eye on the guarded, proud analyst from the first day they met. He knows she's hiding something from him, but nothing could have prepared him for the shocking truth of her past. When a targeted attack exposes Zahra's darkest secrets, Sean will do everything in his power to protect her. But the cell hunting them has powerful connections, and their enemy is closer than they ever imagined.
