Navy SEAL Zach gets back from a mission to find a squatter living in his house...a sexy AF interior designer who is as hot as she is annoying.
Gabrielle claims she was hired by her friend, his sister, to redecorate his place as a surprise, but even Zach knows decorators don't move in to their jobs. And his sister Amanda should have known that the two things Zach hates more than surprises, are change and people touching his stuff--and Gabrielle Lee Interiors and More has done all that and more.
Zach survived the Houthi rebels, but he might not survive these two women--especially when his sister calls him in a panic. Her friend Gabby is missing, possibly kidnapped, in Tijuana, and she's convinced he's the only one who can save her.
He can't believe that just when he finally got Gabby out of his life and his house, if not quite out of his mind, he's supposed to take time away during his leave to go find her. But when he does, things get downright explosive--and not just from the chemistry between them.
What happens in Tijuana...might just kill you.
