Cornered

Jaia is certain her brother was murdered while on a contracting job overseas, and that the company they both worked for buried the truth. She has no proof yet. For some time she has been quietly collecting evidence, at serious risk to herself.

Then she learns the company means to target another innocent man because of what he knows. She warns him and steals secret company files. With no safe place left and no one she can trust, she runs, and turns to the stranger she saved.

That man is Brandon Whitaker, an Air National Guard Pararescueman. He was captured by the enemy during a mission in Yemen and nearly died. What he learned there about alleged atrocities by American contractors still haunts him.

When nobody shows interest in the facts, Brandon digs on his own and finds a cover-up. A call from an unknown woman tells him he is in imminent danger. He goes on the run while trying to find her, and their paths cross.

This is military romantic suspense with a wounded hero and a woman in danger. Trust comes slowly between them, while trained killers follow every move. Staying alive comes first, and exposing the people responsible depends on the two of them working together.
