The Texan's Vengeance (Jonathan Hunt #17)

When you corner a man with nothing left to lose, you don't get a victim. You get a war.

Jonathan Hunt has lost everything, so he's back in Texas. After a brutal tragedy in Italy stripped him of his wife and children, the former black-ops operative hides in plain sight as a silent, heavily scarred day laborer on a sprawling Texas estate. He spends his days driving steel posts into the blistering earth, letting the grueling manual labor quiet the whispers of his dead family.

But the quiet shatters when the ranch's owner—billionaire investor Gravy Archer—is suffocated in his bed by a professional assassin. Framed for the murder and an arson plot by a crew of local scavengers, Jonathan finds himself trapped in a rigged police transport meant to be his tomb.

Instead of dying, he breaks free and races back to the estate to save the only innocent Jamie Archer, the billionaire’s daughter and a dedicated pediatrician. She is the next target in a ruthless, coordinated vendetta orchestrated by a grieving mastermind aiming to liquidate everyone connected to her father's ruthless insurance empire.

Hunted by corrupt cops, a biker gang, and elite hitmen, Jonathan and Jamie have only one place to run—the heavily fortified ranch of Jonathan's estranged, rigid father, Paul.

A small army of professional killers is descending on the Texas scrubland. But they are about to learn a fatal when you corner a man with nothing left to lose, you don't get a victim. You get a war.
