For the seven years after Operation Slam Dunk went south, Mike Brown got drunk on each anniversary. The eighth year was no different–until he was drugged by a woman and woke up to her questions about what had happened eight years ago in Afghanistan. CIA attorney Eva Salinas has her own theory behind what happened to Mike’s team–which included her husband–in Afghanistan eight years ago, and she’s determined to prove foul play. Though she doesn’t trust him, Mike is the only person she can turn to for help. Under an assumed name, Eva convinces Mike to assemble a new team and go after the traitor who screwed up both their lives. As they track down the rogue who started it all, Eva and Mike discover they can’t live without each other. But can they stay alive while an enemy is still on the loose?

Bio:
The only thing Cindy had in mind when she started writing her first book was finishing it. The issue of actually selling it came much later. Only after she made that life-altering first sale did she realize that one book would never be enough. Now, over 20 books and numerous awards later, Cindy laughingly admits that she can barely remember life before…well, was there life before writing?
Actually, yes there was, and still is. A professional career woman, Cindy is a trainer for the Iowa Department of Human Services, a position she states is both challenging and rewarding. “Human Services is a front-line, real-life event. Everything about the job is immediate, from serving families in crisis, to assisting staff with difficult situations, to meeting tension-fraught deadlines.”
Cindy’s writing has netted her spots on bestseller lists, numerous RT nominations and awards, the Colorado Romance Writers Award of Excellence, a National Reader’s Choice Award and two RITA nominations.
Between writing and working full time you wouldn’t think Cindy would have much time for anything else. And while she does find her work and her writing rewarding, there does have to be more. Cindy has more. Much more. She is happily married to the perfect man. Tom’s a cowboy, ladies!
Both Tom and Cindy enjoy gardening and have recently expanded their annual beds into a perennial garden. Cindy says she can hardly wait for spring and the promise of all that reawakening and the colorful blooms.
In addition to the horses, the Gerards have two dogs, Ellie and Boomer, who pretty much get anything they want. Tom and Cindy have one son, Kyle, who, after years of keeping them in suspense, found Eileen, the perfect woman.

THIS BOOK WAS AWESOME!!! I loved it! The action was great both in and outside of the bedroom–yah Mike is HOT and the story suspence kept me guessing. I’d love an autographed copy of one of your books!

Hey guys. thanks for all the cool comments. sorry I haven’t checked in before now. I have a 90 gallon aquarium in my office and I got up this morning and had water all over the floor. Sprung a leak. Have spent the entire day moving fish and draining the tank and drying carpet. Can we say: big time sucky day??
But, stopping in here made me smile so thanks!
Mike is hot, I’ve been hoping he’d get a story soon, especially after Last Man Standing. Hello Cindy!

The synopsis sent me right to your website and Amazon so I can start the series – thank you!
Very timely pst for me, lol. Someone very strongly suggested that I needed to give Cindy Gerard a go recently. I have been trying to acquire all her Bodyguards and BOI’s for the last two weeks. Just got a call this morning and the last two are ready for me to pick up. Now I can start to read them and see what all the raving is about.
I think I got stuck on numbers 10 and 1!
Mike is H-O-T!!!!!
