Troubled Water: A marriage in trouble, protector, workplace romance
His life has been classified for years.
Today, he has to confess to everything-especially to the parts that harmed the woman he loves.
Parker "Thorn" Thornton spent his entire adulthood living in shadows. Former SEAL. Black-ops operative. Professional ghost. He's trained to disappear, to lie with precision, to bury every truth that matters.
Until yesterday.
When a catastrophic collision between his personal and professional worlds forces him into a roomful of strangers demanding answers he never intended to give, Thorn faces the one mission he's never prepared for:
Tell the truth. All of it.
But the moment the questioning begins, it becomes clear they care less about his classified operations... and far more about one topic guaranteed to ignite his temper.
Bethany McCallister. The woman he loves. The one person he refuses to be in danger.
Hour after hour, as day bleeds into night, the interrogation digs deeper-beyond missions, beyond secrets, into the crevices of Thorn's relationship with Bethany. No topic is off-limits. No boundary remains unbroken. Every question exposes more of the turbulent, beautiful, impossible love he's tried so hard to protect.
Yes, they've weathered storms. Yes, they've hit troubled water more than once. But this? He never imagined this was possible.
Because there is one truth he can no longer outrun-one he knows he's going to have to say out loud.
He would kill to protect her.
After all, he already has.
And he would do it again.
