Hello, Halo: A Gripping Military Action Thriller with Romantic Suspense (THE KILLZONE SERIES BOOK 1)

By Jack Buckley

A single mission. A deadly ambush. And a sniper who never misses-until it matters most.

Elite marksman Rick "Halo" Buckley is used to working alone. He thrives in the shadows, watching through the scope of his rifle, ending threats before they know he's there. But when a routine favor for a military unit turns into an outright disaster, Halo finds himself the sole protector of an inexperienced medic caught in the crossfire.
Trapped behind enemy lines with insurgents closing in, Halo knows the rules: no names, no personal connections, no attachments. Just survival. But "Kitten," as he dubs the stranded medic, isn't just another soldier. She's a civilian in uniform, a pawn in a game being played far above either of their heads. And someone-someone powerful-wants her alive.

As bodies stack up and the mission goes from bad to worse, Halo realizes this was never a simple op. The mission was compromised before it began, and now the insurgents are just one part of the problem. Betrayed, outnumbered, and running out of time, Halo is forced to make an impossible choice: abandon his sniper post and risk it all to get Kitten out, or stay in the shadows and watch her die.

Months later, Halo believes it's all behind him-until the past walks straight into his life, upending everything. Kitten-real name Brooke-is back, but she's not here for gratitude. She's here for answers. For closure. For him.
But Halo doesn't do second chances. And he certainly doesn't do attachments.
Only this time, walking away might not be an option.

A gripping, high-stakes military thriller packed with adrenaline-fueled action, razor-sharp wit, and an unforgettable dynamic between two survivors who never should have met-Hello, Halo will keep you breathless
until the final shot is fired.
