An Amazon Charts bestseller.

Protection leads to passion in New York Times bestselling author Susan Stoker’s dangerously hot Mountain Mercenaries adventure.

Dispatched to the Dominican Republic to rescue a kidnapped child, former Marine Archer "Arrow" Kane makes a startling discovery: another hostage—Morgan Byrd, a very beautiful and very well-known missing person who disappeared off the streets of Atlanta a year ago. She’s brave, resilient, and unbroken. All Arrow wants to know is why she ended up in a shack in Santo Domingo. All he feels is the desire to protect.

Morgan is done being the victim and is determined to find out who hates her so much that they want her gone—but not dead. Until then, she has Arrow, an alpha stranger who’s offering a warm and safe place to hide. But as the passion between them flares, so does the fear that whoever took Morgan will do anything to get her back. For Arrow, protecting this woman with a mysterious enemy is the most dangerous mission of his life. And it’s worth every beat of his heart.

Critic reviews

“Stoker thrills with the sizzling hot, fast-paced, and occasionally heart-stopping third contemporary Mountain Mercenaries novel…Stoker sensitively deals with tough subjects such as [assault] (and its devastating aftermath) and parental kidnapping, and draws readers into a richly woven tale, ably setting up the next story. This series is perfect for romantic thriller aficionados.” (Publishers Weekly)

Archer, aka Arrow, was on a mission to rescue a child who had been kidnapped when he and the team found Morgan. She had been kidnapped a year ago and no one had known why or who did this. Just getting her out of Santo Domingo was a challenge. There were too many who were involved in keeping her captive. But once they were back in the US the Mountain Mercenaries were bound and determined to find out why she was taken and by whom. There were many suspects to go through. And it seems she was followed to Colorado after all. Her past trauma of captivity was on going but her feelings for Archer made her confused about many things. Will his feelings for her help heal her enough for her to trust another man? The narration on this story was intriguing enough that I listened till the end.

This is one intense story that I had to finish. Morgan and Arrow are a great match. Morgan needed a special man and he is it. After Morgan's rescue, the question is who would hate someone so much that they put her in this private hell? The story stays intense to the end when we find out who it is. Wow. The story is a winner for Ms. Stoker.

Arrow and Morgan are star crossed soul mates! AHHH! Their story was amazing and heartfelt! ( I loved this entire book!) My heart went out to both but especially Morgan! She is made of steel!

Arrows character is: honorable, humble and understanding
Morgan is: tough as nails, super intelligent & caring

Their adventure stars out in the jungle and is a roller coaster ride from start to finish! EKKK!

ONE GREAT BOOK!

Kudos to Stella for narrating and thanks to Susan for another fabulous book!

Namaste Stoker fans!❤️

I liked Morgan’s character. She is one strong lady. She and Arrow click well and while there is desire, he has amazing patience and support while she comes to terms with all she has endured.

The reason for her trauma and kidnapping, as well as the strange events following her rescue, is the result of someone completely unhinged. The discovery of who is behind it all will surprise to a point, but the lengths to which they’ll go and why is 🤯🤯🤯🤯.

Enjoyed the narrator in the audio book.

Took me by surprise!...but not too hard to believe....:) I'm estranged from my mom....It was hard for me to believe at first that a mother could do this to their offspring....but I was used a an entrapment tool....and I was also kidnapped as a child and survived....physically....as I grew up in my childhood I realized that when it came to me or my mom's love I was always second, maybe....when I run into people who've a special relationship with their mom, it's hard for them to understand my relationship with mine. yea I wouldn't be human if I wasn't jealous of people who have a great relationship....but it just hurts sometimes the way people think of me. Always questions "Wonder why her mom doesn't love her?" "Is she able to be a mom herself?" and on and on....I really appreciate this story because I could identify with it....in a lot of ways....especially the really great parts like a wonderful man....:) I am married to a wonderful Peter Pan with a brilliant & beautiful daughter and I love being a mom.... Oh and thank you so much for the info. at the end of the book. :)

Amazing...! :)
