Every time a woman tries to get close to him, he pushes her away. After losing a friend in battle, he’s riddled with even more survivor’s guilt. He leaves the military and is still trying to find his way when Jake Cogburn offers him a job with the Brotherhood Protectors in Colorado. She cares too much about others and refuses to give less than her all… Though Staci Miller grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth, she chose the difficult path of becoming a doctor to help underserved people in the remote mountains of Colorado. When she fails to check in at home, her father hires Brotherhood Protectors to find his daughter. As his first assignment, Cole goes undercover to find the missing doctor, allowing himself to be captured by the same people holding her. When they escape, they traverse rugged terrain, evading mad mountain people while fighting a growing attraction for each other that could break down the walls around Cole’s heart.

Book Description
A rebellious Indian proclaiming noble ancestry and entitlement, a military lieutenant foreshadowing the coming of revolution, a blasphemous Creole embroiderer in possession of a bundle of sketches brimming with pornography. All shared one thing in common. During the late eighteenth century, they were deemed to be mad and forcefully admitted to the Hospital de San Hipolito in Mexico City, the first hospital of the New World to specialize in the care and custody of the mentally disturbed. Christina Ramos reconstructs the history of this overlooked colonial hospital from its origins in 1567 to its transformation in the eighteenth century, when it began to admit a growing number of patients transferred from the Inquisition and secular criminal courts. Drawing on the poignant voices of patients, doctors, friars, and inquisitors, Ramos treats San Hipolito as both a microcosm and a colonial laboratory of the Hispanic Enlightenment—a site where traditional Catholicism and rationalist models of madness mingled in surprising ways. She shows how the emerging ideals of order, utility, rationalism, and the public good came to reshape the institutional and medical management of madness. While the history of psychiatry's beginnings has often been told as seated in Europe, Ramos proposes an alternative history of madness's medicalization that centers colonial Mexico and places religious figures, including inquisitors, at the pioneering forefront.

Out of the military, and unsure of his future, he’s recruited by Hank Patterson and Jake Cogburn of the Brotherhood Protectors. He accepts the position on one condition…he refuses to protect children. At her former Army buddy’s insistence, Maria Elena Garcia left her boyfriend, the son of a drug cartel kingpin, in the Texas border town of El Paso and headed for Colorado. All she wants is a chance for her and her daughter to start over, free of the cartel and her daughter’s abusive father. Only the ex, like the cartel doesn’t let go of what he considers his. When Venom rescues a pretty woman and her child from recapture by a powerful drug cartel on his first assignment as a Brotherhood Protector, he can’t turn his back and let someone else take over. Against his better judgment, he stays with the pair to provide their protection where their lives and his heart are at risk of total destruction.

Left with a permanent limp and in need of a job, he is recruited by Brotherhood Protectors where he can use his combat training and skills to protect, guard and rescue others. He didn’t expect his first assignment to be the resident mechanic. Nor did he expect the mechanic to be a spitfire of a female with a whole lot of anger. Josephina Angelica Barrera-Ramirez or JoJo, as her friends call her, prefers to be left alone with the work she does on the machinery and vehicles of the Lost Valley Ranch. Suffering from situational amnesia brought on by an attack she sustained during a deployment to Afghanistan, she’s touchy about being touched and doesn’t take flak from anyone. When she becomes the target of a killer, a former Green Beret is assigned as her bodyguard. Forced to have the Green Beret around, her distrust of men is challenged and the wall around her heart crumbles. When danger threatens, Max and JoJo must fight their own fears to defeat evil while losing the battle of their hearts to win a future together.
