Chance: A Small Town, Enemies to Lovers, Protector Romance (Ghost Ops Book 2)

Six operatives with classified missions relocate to a small town, tasked with maintaining their cover while staying unattached.

When she nearly dies at the hands of a dangerous person, Chance Hughes—part of the team that rescues her—stays at her side. Their connection intensifies over two weeks before Rory ends things. Months later, Rory discovers she is pregnant. At the same time, someone begins sabotaging her home and business. Chance, a Ghost Ops soldier shaped by trauma who has never believed in lasting love, learns the truth about the pregnancy. Despite their fundamental incompatibility, he becomes determined to protect both Rory and their child from the threat against them, willing to do whatever it takes to claim them as his own. This story combines small-town setting, enemies-to-lovers dynamics, surprise pregnancy, and military protector themes.
