She’s at the top of her game as a leading FBI brain security researcher. But it isn’t work that brings a handsome ex-Green Beret into her life. That honor belongs to an ill-fated trip to St. Croix, a few daring rescues, and a convicted felon on the run… Hawkeye Kesse thought his time in the military—not to mention his work with the Cerberus Tactical K9 Team Charlie—made him impervious to surprise. And somehow, Petra still throws him for a loop. With one crisis after another, they depend on each other to find a way through. What Hawkeye really wants is time to get to know the most brilliant woman he’s ever met and see where things might go between them... When all is said and done, surviving the sea’s wrath and keeping a criminal family from escaping justice will be easy. Getting to happily ever after? That’ll be the real challenge for Petra and Hawkeye… Shielding Instinct , book 3 in the Cerberus Tactical K9 Team Charlie series, is a page-turning, adventure romantic suspense featuring a STEM heroine who refuses to be a damsel in distress, the protective hero she never knew she needed, and Cooper, a working K9 who is almost as handsome as his human partner.
