Tech Sergeant Mason Randolph comes from a wealthy family with power and influence. As a young adult, he rebelled against the family and was disowned for getting married at 18. He joined the Armed Forces and found his calling to serve and protect. Now, he is divorced with a reputation as a ladies' man, and his only real love is his life as part of an elite group of soldiers who test new highly classified technology.

During a test exercise for a high-speed aircraft designed to allow troops to deploy around the world in just a few hours, something goes terribly wrong. He finds himself going out the door along with the cargo right in the middle of Area 51. Mason quickly finds himself held at gunpoint by an Area 51 Camo Cop -- and a woman, no less.

Jill Walczak is patrolling the box, otherwise known as Area 51, when she sees parachutes landing in a restricted zone. She arrives at the crash site not knowing whether she is coming face-to-face with an alien or the serial killer she is tracking. Considering she is not where she is suppose to be but deep into Area 51, Jill decides to proceed with extreme caution. The serial killer is targeting military personnel, so taking chances is not an option. She quickly recognizes the fly boy as the womanizing Mason Randolph and decides to treat him like any other trespasser in a restricted area. Unfortunately, a chemical explosion contaminates the air, forcing them together and creating more danger than just a killer on the loose.

Catherine Mann's third book in the Dark Ops series is entertaining, pleasurable and suspenseful. One can't help falling in love with the characters. A great read!
