EAGLE (Force Recon Series Book One) Southern Heat & Hidden Loyalties They grew up side-by-side on borrowed time and shared grief, the Marine and the girl he swore to watch over. For Nathan Ward, the only thing sharper than his sniper's eye is his duty to keep his little ward, Kris Jones, safe. But Kris just traded her braces for confidence, and the high school diploma in her hand feels like a challenge to Nate's hardened heart. She's done being the little sister he protects; now she's aiming her own sights on him. When the lines between protector and partner blur, and the past starts whispering doubts, Nate's got a choice: Stick to the safety of the line he drew in the sand, or risk his whole world on the girl who finally grew up right in front of him. When duty calls and desire answers, will the sniper finally see the woman who's been waiting in the crosshairs all along?
