Overview

When linguist and Weapons Specialist Kate Howard is assigned to Afghanistan as a translator for the Hellhounds, an Army Special Forces protection and extraction unit, she’s prepared for a hostile environment, but not a hostile reception. Team leader, Captain Paxton Banks, considers her a liability. Preceded by his demanding and exacting reputation, Paxton’s rigid adherence to Army rules and regulations is legendary. But no one warned Kate about his piercing blue-gray eyes, reminiscent of an Arizona sky before a thunderstorm. Unwelcome and in over her head, she must prove herself an asset to the team, or die trying. This is the prequel to High Heels and Handguns, in which the first chapter excerpt is included. It is not a full book, but a series of short story scenes to give readers a brief look into Kate's life in the military. Only available in ebook.
