Alexa Culver has survived unspeakable trauma at the hands of the Taliban, but she refuses to let them break her spirit. Her work with Artemis Security, protecting young girls from sex traffickers, gives her purpose. But it comes at a cost. Her fiancé, Gage Hunter, has stood by her side during her recovery, but Alexis knows she is holding part of herself back. How long can he wait for her to be whole again?

Gage is worried about Alexa. Her work has become an obsession, and Gage doesn't believe Alexa has fully dealt with what happened to her in Afghanistan. The more he tries to help her, the harder she pushes him away. When Alexa insists on attending an international sex trafficking conference in Paris, she draws the attention of one of the world's most dangerous men. And he has a score to settle with the Culver family.
