Special Forces: The Operator. Cindy Dees

      

      Bound together by duty, they are the first line of defense.

       The Mission Medusa series continues

      Intense training has prepared Special Forces member Rebel McQueen for anything…that is, except sexy security specialist Avi Bronson. They are complete opposites, and yet only Rebel and Avi believe in an imminent terrorist attack. Together, they must protect thousands of innocent lives. But who will save Rebel from certain heartache if she dares to succumb to Avi—and her most dangerous attraction?

      He silently took pleasure in watching the orgasmic expressions crossing Rebel’s face with each new flavor she encountered. She was a great deal more expressive than she likely thought she was. But then, a man like him was adept at catching every nuance of facial and body language, too.

      Eventually, he leaned forward. “I did get one interesting piece of intel from my people this afternoon.”

      She looked up expectantly from her potato-leek soup, abruptly all business, food forgotten. He sent a silent mental apology to the chef.

      “I’ll share it with you, but on one condition,” he murmured.

      “What’s that?”

      He stood up, went around the table and held out his hand to her. “Dance with me.”
