Teaser:  Raven, the head of a covert special operations team, is sent out with her team to protect the U.S. Ambassador to Turkey from a possible terrorist threat. It's not a mission that she and her team enjoy, being more used to blowing things up, assassinations, or covert extraction terrorists. Raven is sent in undercover to protect the Ambassador's daughter, while the rest of her team pose as Marine guards. The tough spec-ops captain is stunned when she finds that the girl she's supposed to protect is actually a twenty-one year old spunky, head strong, gorgeous strawberry blonde. Don't let the above fool you, this isn't really an action-adventure tale, and instead is a very enjoyable romance that has some great moments in it. Keep some ice nearby when you read this one, and don't read it at work!

Teaser:  Everyone has heard of guardian angels - we probably have the best PR department in the world. On the other hand, they're also very good about keeping the true nature of our job out of the press, so to speak. Oh, don't misunderstand - some guardian angels do exactly what is advertised. That is the job of a few... to uphold the myth that we are there for the protection of mankind. Most guardian angels don't protect - they offer hope to the scared and the lonely and the wounded. But for a few even that is not their primary function.

No, for a very few guardian angels, their job is to be there at a crucial time in their charge's life. They are supposed to guide and help a person make the right choice. Only sometimes, they're not in the right place at the right time and that's where I come in.

My job is clean up. When the guardian angel misses their opportunity, my job is to determine if the charge can be salvaged in spite of the guardian screw-up or if there is another choice that can be made or another opportunity offered.

This is the story of one such charge.
