About this ebook
She hides behind the badge.
But some secrets can’t stay buried forever.
FBI agent Ashlyn Pillar is one of the best explosive experts in the field. But when a deadly stalker emerges—leaving behind burned bodies and cryptic messages—she realizes someone knows what she’s hiding. Someone who wants her to remember.
Dylan Rowley has seen it all. Former special ops, his specialty is controlled chaos—until Ashlyn walks into his life. Fierce. Beautiful. Broken. He can read the fear she tries to mask behind her calm. And he’s not letting her face this alone.
To catch a killer, they’ll have to face the fire together. But the deeper Dylan digs, the more he uncovers about Ashlyn’s past... and the monsters that still haunt her.
He’ll protect her at any cost. Even if it means losing her.
EXPLOSIVE delivers pulse-pounding action, sizzling chemistry, and a fierce protector hero who will risk everything to save the woman he loves.
Perfect for fans of Susan Stoker, Brittney Sahin, and Riley Edwards.
Book 4 in the Bound by Loyalty, Honor, and Truth series—where danger, loyalty, and love are tested to the breaking point.
