Mach One — Amy Jarecki

Just looking at the mysterious and stunning woman brings trouble. But former Australian Air Force pilot Luke Fox isn't the type to shirk away from a challenge. When ICE sends him in undercover to take down the most notorious drug cartel in Mexico, he's not planning to encounter tempting and complex Mia. Further, Luke believes the woman to be part of the drug lord's gang...until he uncovers the truth. Intrigued by the cartel's new pilot, she takes reckless risks. Kidnapped when she was a child, Mia has lived her life in fear under the roof of a cold and heartless tyrant. Though she knows the punishment for her curiosity, she cannot help but seek to learn more about the new man who is so different from the others -- and he's the only one who's not afraid to talk to her. As forbidden romance sizzles, they face the most dangerous challenge of their lives. Luke must complete his mission, but the stakes have just quadrupled. Shocked by the brutal truth, he refuses to end it without taking Mia with him. As the enemy closes in, all seems lost. Who saves whom in his fast-paced, heart-stopping struggle of good against evil?
