Heir of Courage

Whatever it takes. As long as it takes.®

Reece King didn’t walk away from Guardian Security because he was broken. He stepped away because something was missing. He’d always trusted the mission, but this time, he was trusting his gut. Reece took a year off to search for the one thing he couldn’t define. When a split-second decision to protect a stranger returns him to his Guardian family sooner than planned, Reece realizes some destinies can’t be outrun.

Maggie Brooks is a brilliant systems architect for Darkwater Security. She trusts data, logic, and the systems she helped build. When a guardian angel who miraculously saved her vanishes, she goes to work. Maggie discovers that Reece King does not exist in any database, and the phone number he gave her can’t be traced. She knows she has crossed into dangerous territory, and she isn’t sure if Reece is on the side of good or evil.

As Maggie uncovers a deadly conspiracy hidden in international waters, Darkwater becomes a battleground and Maggie a target. Reece returns, not only because she’s now the mission, but because protecting Maggie matters. Together, they must expose the truth before someone kills to keep it buried.
