  <default-description>&lt;b&gt;A Fatal Escape&lt;/b&gt;
It was supposed to be simple. All Navy SEAL Nathan Malone had to do was rescue three young girls from a Colombia drug cartel, then allow himself to be captured just long enough to draw out a government spy. That was before his mission went disastrously wrong&amp;mdash;and before his wife, Bella, was told that Nathan was never coming home. 

&lt;b&gt;A Dangerous Desire&amp;hellip;&lt;/b&gt;
Bella's mourned her husband's death for three long years. But she has no idea he's still alive. Forced to assume a new identity, the man Nathan &lt;i&gt;was&lt;/i&gt; is now dead. If he can get back to his wife, can he keep the secret of who he really is&amp;mdash;even as desire threatens to consume them? And as danger threatens to tear Bella from Nathan's arms once more? </default-description>
