As one of the premier sharpshooters in the world, Deke Cunningham never missed his mark. Only the onetime love of his life, Mindy, could knock him off target. And she just gave him the shock of his life: she's carrying his baby!

Now they are being tracked and hunted by the man they can only presume to be the infamous criminal Novus Ordo. Survival has to be their first priority. Mindy had been drawn to Deke the bad boy, but it's the good man - the protector, the father-to-be - that she needs by her side. A modern-day warrior to watch over her and her baby. Their baby. Now Deke has been given a second chance to get his family in order - and keep them all alive.
