Navy SEAL Izzy Zanella and his estranged wife, Eden Gillman, were once very much in love but now can barely stand to speak to each other. But when Eden discovers that her younger brother Ben is being abused by his stepfather, she is set on saving him any way she can - even if that means reconciling with Izzy to prove to a court that they can give better care to the young teenage boy. Just as Izzy and Eden's hearts begin to mend, the makeshift family gets caught up in saving another youth from a crime ring in Las Vegas and ends up with a group of dangerous men on their trail.
So, anyone surprised that it's Eden? I thought it would be when I saw the Vegas background on the cover. I don't remember them being "very much in love". Did they even have time for that? I'll need to do a re-read before next March. I'm wondering how much the other SEALs and TS Inc. characters will be involved. I gotta say, I hope it's not mostly Izzy and Eden because, unless Eden has done some serious growing up, she's going to get on my nerves. But, Brockmann does write some great secondary characters, she really knows how to develop them and make them integral to the plot. I can't think of any of her Troubleshooter novels that didn't have well developed secondary characters that shared the pages with the hero and heroine. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. I know I'll be reading it. :)
