The Base Branch Series

From USA Today bestselling author Megan Mitcham… One takes control. One finds balance in letting go. Base Branch operative Ryan Noble is accustomed to taking orders—whether from his commander or his overbearing mother. His best friend urged him to take control of his life, but the only thing worse than an angry woman is a teary one. He has no desire to upset his mother's fragile emotions. Losing his sister was hard enough; his mom couldn't bear losing another child—even if it is just to the other side of D.C. It's a damn good thing she doesn't know what he does for a living. On a routine mission to destroy a cargo-free human-trafficking facility and exterminate its operators, Ryan blows his extraction to rescue a woman he finds chained inside. Piper Vega is caught between metal and a hard place. She needs information and it has taken far too long to cull it from her leads—also known as her captors. She finally has the facts she needs to complete her task, but it'll take a miracle to set her free and see it achieved. Santo Padre knows she never expected her good favor to come in the form of a man. Ryan takes the reins of life in his sturdy grip while Piper discovers balance in loosening hers. Through intense battles of will, both find the unexpected. "Megan Mitcham's books are well-paced, well-plotted suspense novels edged with stunning sensual intensity.

From USA Today bestselling author Megan Mitcham…  The truth doesn't have versions. Or does it?  Rin Lee covered her childhood in dirt and danced on its grave. Only she pranced a little too hard and spent her young-adult life tiptoeing the straight and narrow. Things finally paid off in the form of a job with the Department of Defense, a home of her own, and a boyfriend muscled enough he put Zach Efron to shame. Until one text reveals a hideous truth that splinters her world.  Suddenly she can't trust Nate or their surrogate family of friends. Can she possibly trust Luck—the man who mirrors her soul, scares her beyond the neat confines she's erected around herself, and makes her scrutinize the versions she's always been too angry to see?  Luck turned to the streets out of necessity, while Rin slapped on blinders and ignored those willing to help her. A stupid move for a sultry young woman. But the skills she learned in the rough and tumble underbelly of DC will serve his latest assignment well. Because people like them have the instinct to survive.  "Megan Mitcham's books are well-paced, well-plotted suspense novels edged with stunning sensual intensity.

When love means betrayal... Jillian Cooper never wanted Callum, until a dream morphs him from her best friend's husband to a singular nocturnal fantasy. Revolted by her own mind and loyal to a fault, she refuses to give the dream life. Still, it manages to make her awkward around her only family; Amery, Callum, and their two stunning daughters. As an orphan and an Explosive Ordinance Tech with the Navy, things have a way of crashing down around her. The world crumbling call came in the form of a single car, single fatality accident. Amery died. While she spins in dizzying circles, the girls she's loved since they were in their momma's belly cling to her. When Callum's strong arms fortify them and keep them all from falling apart, Jillian's inner struggle reaches a breaking point. She does the only thing she can to honor her friend's memory...run to the other side of the world to contract for Titan Group, an elite private securities force in need of an EOD. Callum Bradfield adapts and overcomes. Even after the tragic death of his wife, his core values as a Navy SEAL march him forward...to safer waters.

Things are beginning to regroup when Jillian bails on his girls—and him—without a word. To ensure she's safe, he hacks her personal information and follows the crumbs into Titan's database. Crossing that line gets them both under a microscope in the middle of a desert, searching for the proof they need to show their innocence, while he tries to convince Jillian he's more than just her dream.

Caught between the past and the woman he loves but can't have...   Combine, Texas, labeled Gannon Lee a ruffian by age ten. If only they saw him at twenty-eight; a nomad who followed the fight wherever it took him, an untamed extinguisher of lives. He never intended to give them the chance. Too bad his brother, the only guy in the backwoods town who outranked him in delinquent behavior, landed himself behind bars…again. For the first time, Gannon doesn't think his blood committed the act of arson in question. Gannon's sole focus had been his brother's extraction and the evasion of his previous life—until he learned that Margo Foster had been the victim. She was the only one in the god-forsaken place to know him, understand him, love him. Tragedy ripped them apart decades ago, but Gannon's love for her never faltered. Before he can put the past where it belongs, a thousand clicks back in his rearview mirror, he must find out who tried to hurt the woman he loves and cannot have. Margo Foster works her ass off as an EMT for Dallas Fire & Rescue to prove she is nothing like her family. She is a modern woman who takes care of herself, and her sister who's too busy clinging to the past. Margo's father had blown the family fortune long ago, but her stubborn little sis lived off the name and Margo's good will. When a crappy arsonist threatens to destroy what Margo has worked so hard for, she's ready for battle. Against anyone but Gannon Lee. His presence in her carefully constructed life sends her for the hills. However, once he reveals the perceived arson was really an attempt on her life, she'll cling to the only ally she has, even if his touch breaks her heart.

She's the last person he wants to see and the only one who can help him.   As a former Major in the Army, Natalie Winston is accustomed to calling the shots. As a former MP Detective, she habitually got her man, except for the one she walked away from. With a career stalled in bureaucratic bullshit and an opportunity as an elite operative for the UN's Special Forces unit to continue the work she loves, Natalie blows the States. After all, how hard could it be to find civilian contractors missing from an Army base in the middle of Afghanistan? Pretty damn hard when her cover is a no-rank laundry woman, working under a capital B that doesn't stand for boss. Add a horde of lewd soldiers and a head-on collision with the only man she ever loved to the combustible mix, and the odds against her and the missing women mount. Dixon McCabe is trying his damnedest to follow Base Branch orders and find the civilian contractors missing from US Army Base on foreign soil. The task would've been easier with a heads-up that ghosts from his past haunted the place. Nothing could have prepared him for the run-in with the woman who stomped his heart out of his chest. She shouldn't be here. She should be in a military castle shouting down orders from on high. When Dixon finds himself in the base's military police holding cell—the same kind he used to throw trash into before he found his calling for K-9 training—he's glad to have one loyal ally, the abused shepherd he liberated from the base. Too bad the dog doesn't have opposable thumbs. Dixon must rely on the one person guaranteed to hurt him like no other to uncover the truth behind the missing contractors.
