McGuire's Target (Bayou Brotherhood Protectors World; Shadow Hounds: Rogue Waters #1)

She’s a weapon without a safety. He’s about to pull the trigger.

Ghosted by his own government, former Navy SEAL McGuire LaSalle runs the Shadow Hounds—an off-the-books unit of the Brotherhood Protectors buried deep in the Louisiana bayou. No names. No attachments. No second chances. His rules have kept his team alive. Then, the quiet bartender he can’t stop watching turns a cartel hit into a controlled demolition, and every rule he lives by goes up in smoke.

Riven’s a secret with razor edges, and the danger she drags to his door is the kind that gets teams killed. McGuire should cut her loose. Instead, he pulls her closer—into the mission, into the heat between them—until it all points straight to the threat he swore he’d destroy.

To win, he’ll have to keep her in his sights, trust what he can’t verify, and want what he definitely shouldn’t. Because in the dark between duty and desire, she could be his way back to the light—or the fire that burns them both to ash.
