May I introduce you to my Force Recon Marines as they meet up with the sizzling blue-collar heroes of my Jack ‘Em Up series. Let the fun begin!

Defending Danielle:

Drew “Red” Harrison is a man on a mission.

As part of an elite United States Marine Corps Force Reconnaissance team, he’s done it all—covert intelligence gathering to Black Ops. But when their most recent mission goes bad, Drew and his team are brought back stateside to run security detail for high level government officials under threat of attack.

Drew and his team quickly find out that these threats are not only viable, but more ominous than they could have imagined. This hits especially hard when his past catches up with him in the form of a senator’s intern, who is none other than Danielle Jackson, the awkward girl who crushed on him in high school as she tutored him in physics . . . only the ugly duckling has blossomed into a smokin’ hot swan.

As sparks ignite between them, Drew suddenly has no idea who’s more dangerous—the ruthless enemy he’s trained his whole career to face, or the sexy blast from his past he could’ve never prepared for but would now die to protect.

Rescuing Rebekah:

Tanner “Maverick” Richardson has learned the hard way not to take life too seriously—except for his job as a member of an elite United States Marine Corps Force Reconnaissance Unit. This calling gives him a purpose and helps to cleanse the stains of a painful past he’d rather forget.

Rebekah Harrison takes pride in being an independent woman. Orphaned as a child, she supports herself and her ailing grandfather, and it’s just them against the world—but even she can admit it would be nice to have someone to help shoulder the burden, especially when she starts to feel someone watching her. Little does she know she’s not as alone as she once thought. She had no idea she had a family, much less a long-lost cousin who is part of an elite Marine Recon unit.

So who is this handsome stranger who claims her cousin sent him to save her?

Can she trust him? Can she trust her heart?

Ultimately, as a deadly threat who is hellbent on revenge closes in, she may have no other choice.

Saving Scarlett:

Sidelined by a devastating injury courtesy of the drug cartel his United States Marine Corps Reconnaissance team has been hunting, Johnny “Bubba” Ray is back home on his Texas ranch recuperating and counting down the days until he can rejoin his unit. To make matters worse, the girl who got away is now living and working on his family’s property, making his recovery all the more painful because she is still very much off limits.

Scarlett Rayburn never thought she’d be a widow at her age, much less left alone with two small boys and a closet full of painful secrets her “hero” husband took to his grave. Two years later, she’s picked up the pieces and gotten on with her life . . . at least until her husband’s best friend, Johnny Ray, showed back up after being shot, as sexy and standoffish as ever.

As Johnny and Scarlett spend time together, the truth finally comes to light and hearts are opened, but all too soon, Johnny gets word the cartel is on the move and a little too close for comfort. When the dangers that brought Johnny home come banging on the front door of the ranch, will his team make it in time to help them survive or will he and Scarlett be left to work together to protect what they cherish most?

More importantly, can they break through each other’s walls and finally claim the love that has eluded them both?

Read on to continue the hunt that began in Defending Danielle and Rescuing Rebekah, as the team takes aim at the Mexican drug cartel and their bloodthirsty hacker, El Lobo Blanco, as this game of cat and mouse becomes dangerously more personal.

Saving Grace:

Lucas “Lucky” Moore has a one-track mind and one thing on his agenda: Track down the Mexican drug lord that is hunting Lucky’s Marine Reconnaissance team and their families and end his reign of terror permanently.

The team has come to realize the only way to find the elusive kingpin is through his deadly hacker, El Lobo Blanco—The White Wolf. But who is the mysterious person behind the computer screen who always seems to be one step ahead?

Enter Grace Trevino . . . exotically beautiful, dark, and dangerous.

Her ties to the cartel run deep.

But how deep?

When she reaches out to Lucky, desperate for help, can he afford to turn away the one person who may be able to stop this madness forever? As their explosive chemistry reaches epic proportions, he’s left with even bigger questions—is she really who she says she is? Can he trust her with his life? With his heart?

Protecting Carissa:

Cody “Kid” Wilbanks is a loner. Quiet. Observant. Meticulous. The youngest of his highly trained United States Marine Corps Force Reconnaissance team, he knows he is often underestimated, but that’s only made him work harder to earn his place among this family of deadly warriors—his brothers—the men he’d lay down his life for without a moment’s hesitation.

Now, after months of grueling, dangerous work, they’re closing in on their biggest enemy to date, but things won’t be easy . . . in fact, they might be downright deadly. As the team realizes their biggest asset might be the elusive hacker who has been tormenting them for months has just slipped through their hands, they embark on the biggest chase of their careers, but Kid is in for an even bigger surprise . . .

Carissa Brewer—the girl he left behind after one perfect night together.

He’s held her heart since the moment she laid eyes on the sexy, quiet Marine, but now she holds the ultimate secret that could either rip them apart forever or be the key to unlocking the future she’s been dreaming about.

Redeeming Brianne:

DeAndre “Tito” Johnson has led his United States Marine Corps Force Reconnaissance team through countless battlefields and thousands of hours of recon collection. As a proud warrior and no-nonsense leader, he would gladly take a bullet for any one of the men on his team—because they are more than fellow Marines. They are family.

Working with the Navy SEALs on their current op, they have taken down the Mexican drug lord, Marco Esteban, and crippled his cartel. Now, they are closing in on terror mastermind, Mustaf Al Shadeek, the last piece of the puzzle.

Or is he?

Both scumbags used the elusive and dangerous hacker, El Lobo Blanco—The White Wolf—to intimidate and infiltrate their networks. But the U.S. military has The White Wolf now . . . and she isn’t all that intimidating anymore.

In fact, Brianne Kennard claims she was a victim and that she wants to take down Shadeek as much as they do. But something in Tito’s Marine training and hard-as-nails mind doesn’t want to trust her, no matter how beautiful and vulnerable she seems or how his traitorous body desires her.

But when Shadeek’s threats hit too close to home, something deeper and more primal knows he may have no other choice.

***Don’t miss the epic conclusion to the saga that began in Defending Danielle and continued on through Rescuing Rebekah, Saving Scarlett, Saving Grace, and Protecting Carissa!
