Men of Echo Ridge

I didn’t survive Delta Force by being soft. Fire burned me, missions hardened me, and now I live alone in a mountain cabin where no one crosses my perimeter. My world is fire, steel, and silence. Until she crashes into it. Willa Hart is a fugitive with haunted eyes and a past that could expose everything Echo Company has fought to protect. I should’ve sent her away the moment I leveled my shotgun at her. Instead, I made a choice I swore I’d never make again. I let her stay. In my cabin. In my bed. Under my protection.

I was trained to profile killers. Not fall for one. When the Bureau assigned me to hunt Alex Mercer, a decorated soldier turned domestic terrorist—I expected a fanatic. Instead, I found a man bleeding out in a Wyoming safehouse… and saving my life when the hit team came for us both. Now I’m on the run with the enemy. Every file I trusted is a lie. Every badge I believed in has been weaponized. And the man I was ordered to arrest is the only one keeping me alive. He’s dangerous. Controlled. Infuriatingly calm even with a gun in his hand and blood on his shirt.

The monster they sent to silence me… might be the only man who can save me. I thought I was chasing the biggest story of my career; proof of a covert black-ops program called the Committee. Instead, I walked straight into their trap. One encrypted file, one analysis that got too close, and suddenly the Committee thinks I know where their enemies are hiding. Echo Ridge. Now every shadow operative I’ve been investigating is hunting me, because they believe I have coordinates to a compound that isn't supposed to exist. Including the man who finds me first… Dylan Rourke.

Some missions protect the world. This one protects my family. I walked away from Rachel Donovan eight years ago, thinking distance would keep her safe. I was wrong. Her son just witnessed a Committee execution, and now they’re hunting them both. Protecting them is the mission… but the moment Rachel opens the door, I know it’s more than that. I’ll hold the line. I’ll hold Lucas safe. And this time, I’m not letting her go.
