I’ve spent years running from the memory of Zoe—the girl with emerald eyes, fierce loyalty, and a love I pushed away. She is my best friend’s little sister. Off-limits. Untouchable. Rejecting her felt like the only way to keep her safe from the darkness I carried home after my time as a Navy SEAL and into my work as a Guardian Hostage Rescue Specialist.

But now she isn’t just a memory I can’t escape.

She’s been taken.

A human-trafficking ring has disappeared her without a trace, and every protective instinct I’ve ever buried explodes to the surface. I know what happens to women who vanish into networks like this. I know exactly how little time I have to find her.

When I finally reach the cartel safehouse, seeing her—worn, frightened, but still fighting—shreds me open. Her fingers cling to mine like she’s anchoring herself back to life. Her kiss breaks every rule I swore to uphold.

But getting her out doesn’t mean we’re safe.

The men who took her aren’t done. Their reach is long. Their revenge is personal. And protecting Zoe now means facing the truth I denied for years:

She isn’t just my best friend’s little sister.
She’s the woman I’ve loved all along—
And I’ll tear apart every last threat hunting her to keep her in my arms.

A pulse-pounding romantic suspense filled with tactical danger, fierce devotion, and a second chance that refuses to die, Rescuing Zoe is perfect for readers who crave protective heroes, resilient heroines, and high-stakes passion that hits straight in the heart.

Perfect for fans of Susan Stoker, Catherine Cowles, and Katie Reus, Rescuing Zoe delivers a pulse-pounding blend of danger, passion, and redemption.
