I was never supposed to survive the explosion.
One minute I’m alone on the water, collecting data. The next, I’m drowning, saved by a quiet, lethal Navy SEAL who looks at me like he’s been watching me long before the attempt on my life.
Lieutenant Commander Holden Lange is assigned to protect me while base personnel investigate the sabotage. He’s controlled, dangerous, and far too good at reading me.
I don’t trust men who make me feel safe. I trusted one once and barely escaped with my life.
But the attacks keep coming. My research is stolen. Someone inside the base wants the data I uncovered, and they’re willing to kill for it.
Trapped in close quarters with a man trained to hunt threats, attraction becomes impossible to ignore. Holden doesn’t push. He waits. Watches. Protects.
And every time he touches me, I forget all the reasons I should run.
Because the ocean isn’t the only thing hiding deadly currents. I came to Tidewater to rebuild my life. I never meant to fall for the man who dragged me out of the deep.
But love is like the ocean… Beautiful. Dangerous. And impossible to control.
