"After years of resisting his teammates' good intentions, big, bad, and cranky Delta Force soldier Magnus 'Duff' McCormick agrees to a blind date.
Memories of his wife who died on their honeymoon derail his date with the beautiful redhead his friends introduce him to. When his date is attacked and almost stolen away, Duff comes to the rescue and sticks to her like glue, memories be damned.
Newly free-spirited Ivy Fremont, daughter of a senator, gave up her career as a lawyer to own and operate a gift shop, where mistakes won't cost anyone his or her life. When her world is turned upside down and her life is threatened, her blind date and his team of Deltas launch a mission to Costa Rica to save her.
During their escape from a gnarly drug cartel, Ivy and Duff learn they have more in common than just their friends' desire to get them together. Passions flare and walls around one intrepid soldier's heart come tumbling down. They find in each other a reason to live and fight to give love a chance."
