North

We survived the invasion and beat the aliens. But they left something behind... I was born to protect. I'm a Connors, a soldier like my father before me, and I'm the medic for Hunter Squad. Every time we go out to hunt the mutated monsters the aliens left behind, I'm there to treat anyone who gets hurt.

But sometimes, I can't always save everyone, and that haunts me.

When Hunter Squad is called out to rescue two missing boys, I'll do anything to bring them home alive. Even work with our brand-new recruit, Jessica Ramos.

I'm not convinced she's the right fit for the team, but she's an expert when it comes to monsters. The creatures are exhibiting dangerous new behaviors, and we have to stop them. Whatever it takes.

Working alongside Jess, everything about her gets under my skin: her confidence, her intelligence, her fit, curvy body, and her damn freckles.

When old memories come back to haunt me, it's Jess who helps me. Jess who draws me in a way no woman ever has. I can't afford to let myself care for her.

Falling in love is not on my agenda.
