Delta Fierce!
On loan for a local assignment, Max “Caveman” Decker already feels at home in the backcountry of Wyoming. Protecting one woman—even petite spitfire Grace Saunders—is a vacation to the Delta Force warrior. But Grace thinks something darker is at work than the murder she witnessed. It wasn’t a case of the wrong place at the wrong time—it was her “curse.” Every man she gets close to dies. Now she’s saddled with Decker, her sworn protector, who won’t leave her side. Any hope for a simple assignment will change once they’re living under the same roof, where Grace’s curse will be just as inescapable as the crosshairs of a killer.
“Your battery is dead.” Caveman glanced around. “You got another handy?”
She shook her head. “No. Fresh out.”
“Got a helmet?”
She nodded. “Yeah, but I won’t need it if I can’t get my ATV started.”
He spun and headed for the barn door. “You can ride on the back of mine,” he called out over his shoulder.
Grace’s heart fluttered at the thought of riding behind Caveman, holding him around the waist to keep from falling off. “No, thanks. Those trails are dangerous.” She suspected the danger was more in how her pulse quickened around the man than the possibility of plunging over the edge of a drop-off.
“I grew up riding horses and four-wheelers on rugged mountain trails. I won’t let you fall off a cliff.” He held up a hand. “Promise.”
She frowned. Knowing she only had a few minutes to get to the meeting location, Grace sighed. “Okay. I guess I’ll put my life in your hands.” She followed him out of the barn and closed the door behind her. “Although, I don’t know why I should trust you. I don’t even know you.”

Max “Caveman” Decker clung to the shadows of the mud-and-brick structures, the first SEAL into enemy territory. Reaching a forward position giving him sufficient range of fire, he dropped to one knee, scanned the street and buildings ahead through his night-vision goggles, searching for the telltale green heat signatures of warm enemy bodies. When he didn’t detect any, he said softly
