Valentine’s Day was never on the ops calendar. For these elite operators, romance is a liability until want won’t stay quiet, and love turns into the wild card.
This collection brings five interconnected stories where high-risk work collides with Valentine heat. A rescue mission wrapped in roses pushes a battle-hardened operative to protect more than the target when feelings cut across the plan. A precision assignment veers off course when Cupid’s aim proves deadlier than any weapon, pulling two careful professionals into the line of fire. Rain slicks the parking lot. A radio crackles. Timing slips.
Silk ribbons and chocolate hide simmering secrets as one mission exposes truths neither of them expected, lighting a desire that could shatter their controlled lives. In the glow of monitors and encrypted files, love becomes a puzzle as intricate as the job, asking for trust where none should exist. And when old injuries reopen among thorns and red roses, a chance to try again has to survive betrayal, duty, and regret.
Every story braids tension, attraction, and emotional stakes into operations where seconds matter and mistakes carry costs. These men and women know how to neutralize threats but nothing trains them for the risk of letting someone in. As danger rises and Valentine promises collide with battlefield reality, each decision tests loyalty, nerve, and want.
When love becomes the most dangerous mission, what do you do next?
