Simon Riley

For years, Simon “Ghost” Riley and Captain Evelyn Cross have been the sharpest blades on the same task force—constantly competing, constantly arguing, and constantly saving each other’s lives. Their teammates swear they hate each other. But when a mission goes wrong and the two of them end up isolated deep behind enemy lines, the line between rivalry and something far more dangerous begins to blur.

Task Force 141 is deployed to dismantle a dangerous global weapons network, but the real tension lies within the team itself. Caught between Ghost’s quiet intensity and König’s overwhelming presence, Sloane “Vex” Hart continues to push both men to their limits—until one mission traps them together in a way none of them can ignore.
