Dr. Carmen Rodrigues, CDC's Outbreak Task Force director, is on the hunt for a killer—an airborne virus spreading from Florida across the States, gaining traction with each passing moment. Although she'll never forget her one night with sexy bodyguard John Dozer in Afghanistan, his protective nature is one distraction she doesn't need right now.

Ex-Army Intelligence officer John Dozer will put his life on the line for beautiful, independent Carmen. Every. Time. Even when she pushes him away. And now, with her struggling to contain an outbreak likely triggered by domestic bio-terrorists, maybe even insiders at the CDC, she needs him more than ever. He lost her once. He'll never let that happen again.

Contains mature themes.
