| Plot Summary of Her Secret Guardian |
" Part of an international relief agency, Dr. Grace Evans ministers to the sick and wounded in dangerous parts of the world. Obsessed with saving others, she seems to have no regard for her own well-being. Lucky for her, she has her own guardian angel. A mysterious man has appeared to her many times in many places, warning her to leave and spiriting her safely away the moment before death closes in. One night before he dissapears, he brushes his lips to hers. Then shockingly, Grace's saviour fails her, and she is violently taken captive in a Central American country....
Sean Patrick Douglass is a battle-hardened warrior, but just a man. A man as obsessed with saving Grace's life as she is with risking it. He raids the rebel stronghold, rescuing Grace and taking her to a hidden cave where they must wait out a raging hurricane before they can escape the country of San Reino.
Hidden away together, Grace is mesmerized by this man. So powerful and capable. He risks his life for her, but will only reluctantly tell her his name! As her attraction to Sean grows, so does the feeling she might have finally found something worth living for.
The violence that accompanies their escape from the rebels brings back horrible memories to Grace of the day her beloved family was killed by a terrorist bomb. Safely back in the U.S. with Sean, she is the focus of countless news stories replaying her history, and the famous photograph of her as a young girl being carried away from the bomb site by a young marine whose involvement in the incident years ago was and is unknown to Grace."
