Publisher's Synopsis
Katy, aka Hellcat, trained in close combat and was often brought in to humble soldiers when egos were bigger than their skills could back up, and the top asset for situation briefs in the White House. When assigned to the Alpha Angels unit, she chose mission planning for the Combat Controllers. During a multiunit task to take care of a situation all four of the Alpha Angels had stake in, Katy took the position as the Angel in Charge and watched Eric, aka Marine Raider Raphael, go rogue to save a dozen lives no one had known were on site, one of them a kid who had been separated from the rest. Hers was the last signature needed to approve a plan the Angels or their units would complete, and she was the one who determined which tasks were assigned to what units the Angels worked with, thereby setting any planning session into motion.
Fast forward eight years, the Alpha Angels had transitioned to civilian life as well as could be expected, forming the Alpha Sorority: Angels chapter, or ASAs. They built business and worked with charities to help their chosen hometown of Everywhere thrive while covertly cleaning up the streets to make it a safe place for all in the community to call home. For her role, Katy chose to be a substitute teacher to be close to their legal guardee by day and had her share of cleanup duty by night, all her efforts failing to drown out the silence that had descended when their leads had retired them and the connection with Eric was abruptly severed.
Between days at the high school, evenings training a multiunit task force, and taking out the trash at night, ASA Angel Katy is trying to move on until one of the former commanders she worked closely with as part of the Angels informed her that her Raider was moving to town. Missing him had been crippling, but she was convinced he would only ever want her as the Angel in his ear, not real her. Fear of losing even fantasy Eric was too immense, so despite knowing he was her only shot at a happy ever after, she was very aware he was the only one who could destroy her, and the cost of which would be the loss of the dream of him. But just what was an Angel to do when fate intervenes...
