Summary:
Jina Modell functions in Communications for the paramilitary firm, and she really likes it. She wants the money, she prefers the coolness factor-and it had been very cool, also for Washington, DC. She loved having the ability to kick terrorist butts without ever departing the climate-controlled comfort from the control room.
But when Jina displays an extremely high aptitude for spatial awareness and actions, she’s reassigned to work as an on-site drone operator in the field with one of the GO-teams, at the very top about THE GIRL LEFT OUT: A Novel paramilitary unit. The only issue is certainly she isn’t especially athletic, to put it mildly, and in order to be fit for the field, she’s to understand how to operate and swim for miles, jump out of a plane, shoot a gun…or else end up being out of employment.
Team innovator Levi, call indication Ace, doesn’t have very much confidence in Jina–who he dubbed Babe when he heard her raspy, sexy voice–making it through the rigors of training. The very last thing he needs is some tech geek keeping them back again from completing a dangerous, covert procedure. In the following months, however, nobody is more surprised than he when Babe, who hates to sweat, begins to thrive in her fresh environment, showing a grit and courage that is victorious her the admiration of her solidified, battle-worn teammates. What’s a lot more surprising is that the usually very disciplined GO-team leader can’t stop thinking about kissing her smart, stubborn mouth…or the building chemistry and pressure between them.
Meanwhile, a robust Congresswoman is functioning behind the moments to destroy the GO-teams, and a snare is set to ambush Levi’s squad in Syria. While the remaining operatives tripped on their mission, Jina continues to be at the bottom to regulate the monitoring drone, when the bottom is suddenly attacked with explosives. Idea inactive by her comrades, Jina escapes to the desert where, brutally examined beyond measure, she has to determine how exactly to stay undetected by the foe and make it to her crew with time before they’re exfiltrated from the nation.
But Levi by no means leaves a soldier behind, specifically the brave girl he’s fallen for. He’s getting back the woman they left behind, inactive or alive.
