got home that he’d been able to take off his mask, grief tearing him apart, memories haunting him.
Laura. Bella.
She’d been so alive and vibrant, so intelligent, so sensual and beautiful. He remembered kissing and nipping her graceful neck, groaning against her throat—a throat that some son of a bitch had cut. Unable to bear that last thought, he stumbled out of his BDUs and stepped into a hot shower, rage erupting from inside him until he found himself beating on the tile wall with his fist. “No! No! No!”
For the second time in his life, Javier felt tears in his eyes.

Mary, mother of God, please promise me that Laura didn’t suffer.
No answering voice came to reassure him.
He had no idea how long he stayed in the shower, how long he wept for her. He knew only that the water had turned cold. He stepped out, dried off, and looked at his own reflection in the mirror, making himself a promise.

To read the Prologue to Striking Distance (I-Team #6), which continues Laura and Javier’s story, visit my website (www.pamelaclare.com).
“This sixth I-Team installment sees Clare at her very best, combining scorching desire with a gripping, often painful, exploration of healing and redemption. The plot's mystery and suspense elements are exceptionally well researched and expertly plotted, but the real achievement lies in her beautifully crafted main couple. Her heroine's ordeal is unspeakably painful, but her strength never wavers. The chemistry with her steadfast hero never lacks for sizzle, but the emotional bond they share allows them to go beyond the physical to a profound, unforgettable love.”
