This was my least favorite Dee Henderson book. 9-11 happened while she was writing it, and since the story is inspirational with military characters, there was no way she could avoid 9-11. I just didn't get to know these characters as well as usual, but I'm still a fan.
Darcy, a retired spy, and Sam, a Navy SEAL, meet by chance. The events of 9/11 separate them as Sam returns to duty and Darcy comes out of retirement. Will separation tear their relationship apart or make it stronger?
