A Navy SEAL returns home to find his family in trouble and his high school sweetheart impossible to resist. First in the Texas Family Reckoning series.

Navy SEAL John Sloane thought he'd come home to Texas to save the family ranch and reconnect with his estranged twin brother. He never expected to reunite with the girl whose heart he broke. But when Alicia Adams's daughter is kidnapped, the fearless SEAL jumps into action.

However, the off-book op poses unfamiliar dangers to John, none more risky than his feelings for Alicia. To regain her trust and protect her from the kidnappers, he'll risk his career and even his life. It all hinges on one daring scheme that could prove he's the hero she needs—or break her heart all over again . . .

"The opening scenes grab your attention and don't let go . . . It has all the romance, suspense, wit and surprises that we love." —More Than a Review
