Duty Bound
(2024)(Going Rogue)
(The first book in the Blackthorn Security series)A novel by Gemma Ford
HAUNTED BY THE PAST
No way is Blade ever going back to Afghanistan—not after what happened. The memories are too raw, the pain too deep. Except now, his dead buddy’s girlfriend has gone missing—kidnapped by the Taliban—and thanks to the volatile situation in the country, no one’s going to get her out. That leaves him.
A DARING ABDUCTION
One minute she’s at work, the next all hell breaks loose. While racing to the airport, trying to get on a plane home, Lily is abducted by the new regime—and they mean business. Rough hands grab her, dragging her into a waiting van. This is no accident. They want the military codes that she's got locked away in her head, and they won't rest until they get them.
THE LAST MAN SHE WANTS TO SEE
Starving, dehydrated, and freezing cold, Lily didn’t think things could get any worse. Then, in storms special ops soldier "Blade" Wilson, all guns and glory, to rescue her. Blade, her late boyfriend's best friend, and the man responsible for his death. With his brooding eyes and that impossible jawline, he's the last person she wants to see, but he's also her only ticket out. She has no choice but to trust him with her life.
A LOVE WORTH FIGHTING FOR
As they race to escape, the simmering attraction between them threatens to ignite, but in a war-torn world where trust is scarce, their feelings may be the one thing that could destroy them both.
This is an enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity romance with some steamy scenes.
*Duty Bound was previously published as Going Rogue.
