He’ll do whatever it takes
To protect his family
When a plane crash leaves special ops soldier Hawk Jacobson with amnesia, all he knows is that the plane was sabotaged and he has a target on his back. His survival depends on letting everyone—including his wife, Jillian Wade—believe he’s dead. Until gunmen come after Jillian and the daughter he never knew existed. Can Jillian help him regain his memory in time to expose a killer?

A movement outside caught Hawk’s attention. The men had found the cabin.
“We need to go. Get your coats, leave the duffel behind. We’re heading out the back.”
“The back?” The confusion in Jillian’s green gaze morphed into fear. “They’re here?”
He nodded. Keeping Jillian in front of him, he covered their backs as he guided them into the woods. Hawk continued sweeping his gaze over the area, looking for signs the hostiles were near.
When they reached the cluster of bushes, he carved out a small space with his hands and drew Jillian down. “Stay here. I’ll be back soon.”
She clutched at his arm. “Don’t leave us,” she begged.
“I have a snowmobile nearby. I promise I’ll be quick.”
Tears welled in her eyes, but she gave a jerky nod, showing she understood. He drew out his gun and handed it to her.
He hesitated. There was so much he wanted to say, but there wasn’t time. He needed to move, to draw the hostiles away from Jillian and Lizzy.
He’d willingly sacrifice himself to keep them alive and safe.
I hope you’ve enjoyed Hawk and Jillian’s story, Soldier’s Christmas Secrets. Many of you asked for Hawk to find his own happy ending, and frankly, I wasn’t quite willing to give up the Callahans, either.
I have the utmost respect for all of those who serve our country, and I hope you give this new miniseries, Justice Seekers, a try.
