Vanguard

Sophie Swenda is accustomed to saving lives on a grand scale. As a refugee aid expert, it's her job. Now, she needs to save just one person Michael Nariovsky-Trent, the man she loves.

In the bitter cold winter of 2014, the Soviet Republic once again invades the unified Baltic nations, forcing tens of thousands of civilians into a refugee camp that more resembles Auschwitz than a place of mercy. Under the watchful eye of a vicious Soviet commander, Sophie leads her team into the camp to do what she does every day: save lives under the most extreme conditions.

But for Sophie, this mission is like no other. Michael, a Baltic-born American doctor, vanished months ago after joining the resistance. Sophie believes he's trapped inside the fences and barbed wire, lost in a sea of freezing, starving prisoners of war.

Despite her long-ago failed romance with Michael, Sophie's always believed their time would come no matter how unlikely it seems to everyone around them. His blazing temper, her obstinacy, and their shared brilliance and competitiveness have made the road to love a rocky one. More than a decade after they separated, they're too stubborn to forgive past mistakes and still too in love to move on.

Unless Sophie can find him, their long-delayed chance at love will be lost forever. With the world's security forces deadlocked and the camp's commander seeking vengeance, Sophie is on her own. She must bargain for the life of the man she loves and everyone else in the camp before the commander destroys them all.
