"A covert mission sparks a flaming desire with earth-shattering repercussions... Maddy Powers's life revolves around cocktail parties, political fundraisers, and charity events -- but she can't forget the daring former SEAL who appropriated her father's yacht a few months ago ... or the scorching kiss they shared before he disappeared into the deep blue sea. Bran Pallidino carries a dark secret behind his lady-killer eyes -- one that keeps him from pursuing a serious relationship with Maddy. But when she's taken hostage during a trip to the Dry Tortugas, the men of Deep Six Salvage drop their treasure hunt for a sunken galleon and embark on a dangerous mission to save Maddy. As they fight her merciless kidnappers, they discover this isn't a simple hostage situation, but something far more sinister. Passion boils between Bran and Maddy, but what good is putting their hearts on the line if they don't survive the dawn?" -- provided by publisher.
