Publisher Description
He was sent to eliminate a threat. He found the one woman he can’t let go.
Navy SEAL Bowie "Ruckus" Cooper is no stranger to high-risk missions, but nothing prepares him for finding a captured American reporter deep in hostile territory. Now separated from his team, protecting Dana Sorenson becomes his new priority—whether she likes it or not.
Dana’s fearless reporting brought her to the edge of danger. Ruckus pushes her right over it. He’s gruff, commanding, and way too sexy for a man who gives orders like they’re law. But surviving the jungle is nothing compared to surviving him.
He’s her only shot at getting out alive. She might be his only shot at something real.
Forced proximity. Relentless danger. Off-the-charts chemistry.
Ruckus kicks off the adrenaline-fueled SEAL Team Alpha series—perfect for fans of alpha protectors, fierce heroines, and heart-pounding romance.
Customer Reviews
Really Good
This one is really really good. I’ve read her romantic comedy before, but this is the first romantic suspense book of Zoe’s that I am reading. I really enjoyed Ruckus and Dana’s sparring and the Adrenaline filled escapades!

Sigh. I totally enjoyed this.
Not for me
This unfortunately did not really work for me. Bowie and Dana were okay as characters, but the chemistry felt off between the two of them. At the beginning of the book some of Bowie's internal dialogue was inappropriate for their situation. Then there was his insistence on calling her cupcake even when she asked him not to in order to annoy her. Plus, it stretched credulity for them to be running for their lives from drug runners through the jungle and they stop to have sex. What?!?! That seriously makes no sense. Also, the ending with Bowie's mom felt too nonsensical to be realistic. One meeting and all of the pain and bad feelings are just over? The whole "solution" just felt rushed and not well thought out. Since I seem to be in the minority maybe this book just wasn't for me. YMMV
