Kai — Anna del Mar

Kai King has been assigned a difficult and problematic mission. The legendary Marine Raider must find a brilliant heiress who doesn't want to be found.

But he's not the only one hunting for her.

Cece Astor is a single-minded, dedicated scientist at the brink of the discovery of a lifetime. She has cut all ties with her family to escape her father's stranglehold. In devoting her life to her work, she has no room for errors or distractions in her life.

The skilled, good-looking operator who breaks her seclusion and shatters her little world falls squarely into the “distraction” category.

Under attack, Cece doesn't have any options. She must rely on the extraordinary Marine who risks his life to protect hers, the same remarkable man who might yet disprove her lonely life's “no love, no distractions” hypothesis.
