The unknown soldier
He may have lost his memory, but not his mercenary skills. And once Jack Coburn learned his real name, he sought out the woman who could help him piece together the rest of his past. Lola Famosa had hired the green beret months ago to find her missing brother. And that mission had nearly cost him his life.
But locating the lovely doctor presented new dangers. Someone was determined to keep Lola from her quest, and her life hung in the balance. Jack’s first concern might have been regaining his memory, but now it was all about protecting Lola. For she was the one thing this loner was determined to keep.
“Nothing’s ringing any bells.” Except Lola in those jeans as she bent over the drawer. That rang his bells.
She spun around, pinching a card between two fingers. “Got it.”
“It’s a start. Maybe this guy can tell me if I have a home, a family…a wife.”
Lola’s long, dark lashes fluttered. “I doubt it.”
He plucked the card from her fingers and slipped it into his back pocket. “You doubt I have a home, a family and a wife?”
“You may have a home and a family, but no self-respecting wife would allow her husband to go gallivanting around the world saving other people’s families.” Her jaw formed a hard line as if daring him to dispute her logic.
“I don’t know about that.” He held up his left hand. “But I don’t feel married.”
Could he be lusting after this hot doctor if he were?

Prologue
An invisible net tightened around Jack Coburn.
His gaze flicked to the black suit with the dark shades. Was he speaking into his lapel? A man at two o’clock straightened his shoulders and reached beneath his jacket. Was he going for a gun?
Adrenaline spiraled through Jack’s body, and the hair on the back of his neck stood at attention. He’d arrived in Miami under an assumed name. Did the suits know that fake name? Had they given him that
