The bestselling author of Never Surrender “thrusts you into the action of a fire fight at the very beginning, then lulls you into a tender romance” (Fresh Fiction).
 
She dances on the edge of life . . . and death
 
Not all are meant to walk in the light. Marine Corps Sergeant Khat Shinwari lives among the shadows of the rocky Afghanistan mountains, a Shadow Warrior by name and by nature. She works alone, undercover and undetected—until a small team of US Navy SEALs are ambushed by the Taliban . . . and Khat is forced to disobey orders to save their lives.
 
To go rogue.
 
Now, hidden deep in the mountains with injured SEAL Michael Tarik in her care, Khat learns that he’s more than just an operator. In him, she sees something of herself and of what she could be. Now duty faces off against the raw, overwhelming attraction she has for Mike. And she must decide between the safety of the shadows—and risking everything by stepping into the light.

      Marine Corps sergeant Khat Shinwari is a Shadow Warrior, part of a special black ops group of women in the military. Captured by the Taliban four years ago, she was left with deep scars on her back from the brutal beatings she endured and the belief that no man will ever love her. She works alone, patrolling the mountains of Afghanistan. When she comes upon a team of SEALs about to be ambushed by the Taliban, her life is changed forever. She rescues injured SEAL Mike Tarik. When he returns to base, Mike vows to find her again. When Mike's commanding officer becomes Khat's liaison, Mike has a chance to be with her again. The seventh installment in McKenna's Shadow Warrior series (Never Surrender, 2014) is packed full of danger and adventure. Fans of military romance will appreciate the strong female characters, steamy sex scenes, and details of military life.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2015, American Library Association.)
