I’m Sergeant Mara Bennett, assigned as the medical provider attached to a Special Forces team flying missions in the Middle East. Some say I’m sassy, but I have to be. I’m responsible for my teams’ lives.
Captain Elias (Eli) Mercer is my commanding officer (CO), a Blackhawk pilot, who pushes the limit of flirting, especially since I’m his subordinate and military regulations are in place to prevent favor and also to maintain discipline.
At first, he is careful to protect both of our careers but even his friends see him falling fast. I start to fall too.
Then we are deployed in a hostile environment. I’m trying to keep one of our ground team from bleeding to death after being hit. Noise, smoke and poor radio com, I barely hear Eli hollering “ MARA!” providing cover above . Out goes military protocol.
Then a blast hits me, in the head . I can’t move but I can’t leave my team member in bad shape either. Everything is a blur.
After some time, I wake up in a military medical facility, apparently after Eli transported me there. They say I’ve lost some memory . They don’t want to tell me the details.
I don’t remember Eli at first. He keeps his CO composure visiting me daily through therapy. Something happened between us .
Will I ever find out? Will Eli sit on the sideline and wait for me to remember ? What if I never figure it out? Was it love and if so, can it ever happen again ?
