Sometimes the past is the only thing standing between you and the bullet.Logan Sarich has built a life he respects-military honors, a spot with THE AEGIS NETWORK, and zero complications. He's never let a woman distract him from the mission, never needed more than the adrenaline of the job to feel alive. Until THE AEGIS NETWORK sends him to Jupiter, Florida to protect one of the country's most brilliant ethical hackers...who also happens to be the girl he walked away from after high school. Now he's standing in her driveway, and the only thing more dangerous than the threat hunting her is the way she still looks at him.Mia Vanderlin's world implodes when a routine security check reveals someone has hacked a defense contractor-and her. Top secret plans are being stolen, and whoever is behind it knows exactly where she lives. When her family calls THE AEGIS NETWORK, she expects protection. She doesn't expect Logan Sarich. They left things clean-no broken hearts, just two kids chasing different dreams. But the moment he walks through her door, every carefully buried feeling comes roaring back, and Mia realizes some fires never really go out. They just wait for the right moment to burn.
