Brodie Martinez made no secret that he was the son of an infamous cartel head…at least, not to his boss.

Asked to keep his secret upon his employment, the Mexican born Texas Ranger spent his last few years undercover rescuing trafficked women and reducing narcotics trade across the border. He’s never had anything to hold him in one location, until Wren.

Saving her from his father’s drug lords was an easy choice. Leaving her vulnerable and prey to a toxic family while he heads back out of Texas and hundreds of miles away twists his moral compass. Torn between choosing between duty and his heart, Brodie throws himself into his work and right into his estranged father’s path. Using Wren’s memory to keep his focus, he breaks all the rules both he and his boss set when he first started undercover work.

At the risk of blowing his cover story, Brodie spends a weekend with Wren, promising himself she deserves a welfare check before he heads back to Mexico one last time. Every good intention can’t save him from falling deeper for the slight but strong traumatised woman he loves, even if she isn’t sure she can love him back. What should be an easy six-month assignment turns deadly, until Brodie isn’t sure if he’ll ever see Texas or Wren again.
