STRONGHOLD
"Fight Hard! Play Wild! Love Strong!"
***​

A warrior who’s tired of war

Rowan Salieri lives by three rules: fight hard, play wild, love strong. Those rules carried him through multiple deployments and missions during his 15-year career as a Navy SEAL. Now they’re the backbone of Stronghold Ranch, where the warriors who never stopped serving retreat from the ghosts that haunt them. Stronghold doesn’t take freelance rescues…until a desperate father shows up at Rowan’s door, clutching a photo of his missing daughter and a paycheck big enough to keep Stronghold afloat.

 

A barrel racer fighting for survival

Enya Moore made her dreams come true by following in her mother’s footsteps and winning the barrel-racing champion title at the biggest international show of the year. But when the lights dimmed, and the fairgrounds closed, one wrong step, one trusting smile, and she found herself dragged into a nightmare she had no way out of. But Enya knows how to win when the odds are stacked against her. If she can handle a thousand-pound stallion at full speed, she can fight for her life—until she can’t. Hope comes in the shape of a scarred man with eyes like storm clouds and a promise she wants to believe—you’re going home.

 

Once more into the fray to save her.

Tearing through the Colombian jungle, Rowan tells himself it’s just another op—get in, get her, get out. But nothing about Enya fits his mission plan, and everything about her casts his meticulously organized world into chaos. Back in the Stronghold, danger stalks them and love finds them as the lines between duty, survival, and something far more dangerous blur until the only thing left to fight for is each other.
