Forged From Ice

You can't run from him. U.S. Marshal Titan Everett never loses his prey, and he always stays mission oriented. His latest mission? He's working with a group of cold case solvers called the Ice Breakers-he's chasing down a runaway witness, a woman who may be the key to solving a string of unsolved murders. Seems like a simple enough job. After the hell he's seen, locating one Cassidy Jacobs, former kindergarten teacher, should be a walk in the park. She doesn't want to be found. When you manage to escape from a twisted killer-who happened to be your boyfriend-you grab life by both hands and you hold on tight. You run like mad from danger, you reinvent yourself over and over, and you don't look back. Ever. Unless, of course, the past comes barreling at you in the form of one truly massive and strong U.S. marshal. Titan is big, dangerous, and determined to bring Cassidy back home. He also has the most incredible eyes she's ever seen and a voice that makes her whole body ache with longing...Problematic. Very. Because the last time she fell hard for a sexy stranger, he wound up being a monster. Home is where the nightmare waits. Scarred and twisted by his own past, Titan never claims to be anyone's hero. He barely talks, and charming is the last word anyone would ever associate with him. The bubbly, beautiful Cassidy is his complete opposite, and the scorching, primal attraction he feels for her catches him completely off guard as they embark on what has to be the road trip from hell. Unfortunately, Titan isn't the only one who has found Cassidy. She's been running non-stop, but she just can't seem to run far enough-or fast enough-to evade the man who wants her dead. When Titan saves her life and promises protection, she agrees to a partnership with him. He'll protect her, and she'll help him draw out the killer. No biggie. Not like she's utterly and completely terrified. But eventually, you have to stop running and start fighting. This isn't just another hunt for Titan. Everything has changed in his world because of Cassidy. Losing her can't happen, but putting the man in the ground who has been terrorizing her? Absolutely on Titan's to-do list. New mission: Protect Cassidy and catch a killer. And when the case is closed, maybe Cassidy will want to start a new life once again...only this time, with Titan at her side. U.S. Marshal Titan Everett is on the hunt. On the outside, Titan looks scary as the devil, and he's well aware that he often sends small children running. But Cassidy isn't afraid of him. Beautiful, bold, and with a spark for life that draws him close, she is unlike anyone he's ever met before. She needs help, and she's going to get it. Because from the first moment he sees her, Titan knows...he will move heaven and fight hell to keep her safe.
