HUNTED
"A pulse-pounding military thriller with heart-wrenching romance and conspiracy that reaches the stars."
They exposed a traitor. Now the real hunt begins.
Dr. Shelly Martine is a fugitive with evidence that could bring down Vice Admiral Helena Cross—the woman responsible for her husband's murder and fifteen years of treason. Former Captain Jared Zorcon gave up everything to help his command, his career, his future. Together, they're hunted across the solar system by kill teams determined to silence them forever.
But exposure isn't enough. Cross is just one player in a conspiracy that spans decades. As Shelly and Jared dig deeper, they uncover a network of corruption reaching from military command to civilian government—a web of powerful people who've profited from prolonging humanity's war for forty years.
The truth will set them free. Or get them killed.
Every lead brings new dangers. Every ally might be a traitor. And the conspiracy they're hunting is hunting them right back. From desperate escapes on Mars to deadly confrontations on Europa, from the frozen wasteland of Ganymede to the corporate fortresses of Luna Station, Shelly and Jared must stay one step ahead while fighting to trust each other.
Their forbidden affair destroyed their old lives. Now it might be the only thing keeping them alive.
