Breaking Contact. Pathfinders, #1

Anton Bateman made the ultimate sacrifice to protect the man he loved-faking his own death to shield Blake Graham from a lethal betrayal. Now, three years later, the shadows he tried to outrun have caught up with him. The cartel he helped dismantle is rising again, and they've stolen something even more precious: the children Blake was sworn to protect. Blake thought Anton was dead. Finding out he's alive-and at the helm of a covert fortress built by mercenaries-isn't even the biggest shock.
As bullets fly and secrets unravel, the past they buried ignites into something explosive, tender, and terrifyingly real. With two vulnerable children caught in the crossfire, a team of elite soldiers with ghosts of their own, and enemies closing in from all sides, Anton and Blake must navigate a world built on lies to find something true. Love. Family. A second chance. But surviving the truth may be more dangerous than dying with the lie.
Breaking Contact is a high-octane, heart-rending military romance full of sharp banter, deep scars, and a love worth fighting for-again.
