Jacqueline Hughes still smiles every time she thinks of her father. Still misses him at every family dinner. Feels him on every job. It's been three long years since her mom called her unexpectedly to tell her he was gone. Jac has spent those years hiding the pain and convincing her father's crew that she can lead them. Being young, pretty, and female in construction are almost impossible obstacles to overcome. But she has not only succeeded, she has triumphed. The job, the company, her father's reputation - these are the things most precious to her.
Wade Mitchell, former Navy SEAL and co-owner of Trident Security, is eager to start his latest assignment. Someone has been sabotaging Hughes Construction's current job site. Weakening the stairs... stealing supplies... canceling orders. Wade's job is to infiltrate the company, expose the traitor, and, of course, rescue the damsel in distress. And Jacqueline Hughes is one hell of a damsel! Wade has been waiting weeks for a chance to get his hands on her curvy, little body. But Jac is a woman with rules. And rule #1 is - Never get involved with a man you work with. No excuses. No exceptions. Wade, however, has a different philosophy when it comes to relationships - Rules were made to be broken!
