Chosen Few #2: August

The Chosen Few is a Blood Brothers crossover series that can be read as a standalone. August is the second book in the steamy, heart-stopping romantic suspense Chosen Few series, an action-packed story of survival, second chance romance, and passion.

August, an ex-black ops soldier, is the protective hero of this tale. Gigi Hastings, the female lead, finds herself on the run again after an assassin storms her safe house and kills the U.S. Marshal assigned to protect her. The long arms of the Mexican Cartel have discovered Gigi's location in Witness Protection and are determined to see her demise.

Numb and terrified, Gigi calls the one man she knows will move heaven and earth to protect her - the man whose memory she's savored during her lonely months in Witness Protection, the man whose heart she broke two years ago. August is not easily shaken, but Gigi's life in danger does something to him he can't explain.

Though Gigi had to be safe in Witness Protection, a part of August needed to hear her voice. But the panicked, shock-coated voice he receives on that fateful call shatters his composure. Without hesitation, August throws aside his bodyguard job and rushes to meet Gigi. Seeing her again constricts his heart and reminds him of how the memory of her sweet face had kept him alive when he was at death's door.

The ease that had once existed between them is now destroyed by August's unhealed pain, but he swears to keep Gigi safe, even if his own heart hangs in the balance. The Cartel is hunting her, and he'll do anything to get between her and them.

Witness Protection is supposed to protect its witnesses, but it has failed Gigi. Now, she and August must fight for their lives and their chance at redemption. In this action-packed tale of survival and second-chance romance, passion and peril collide as they race against time to outwit the Cartel and escape with their lives.

August is an ex-black ops soldier, a man not easily frightened, but Gigi's life in danger evokes a response in him he can't comprehend. The memory of her kept him going when he was at death's door, and now he'll stop at nothing to protect her, even if it means risking his own heart in the process.
