Donovan Kelly has spent years working for his family's covert operation, the Kelly Group International, rescuing hostages and gathering intelligence on missions the government cannot handle officially. He and his brothers have paid a heavy price for their work, watching it damage everyone they care about. Now trouble has come to his own backyard at Kentucky Lake. A woman appears at this peaceful refuge, running from enemies who threaten her and the young siblings she protects. She is desperate and out of time. Donovan must use every skill and connection his elite military background has given him. The mission becomes deeply personal as he realizes this woman and her charges might represent the family he never knew he wanted. Success means more than just another rescue operation. Failure could cost him his future.
