The Dream Maker Tara L Ames

U. S. intelligence agencies believe a Russian nuke left over from the Cold War has been smuggled onto US soil. A CIA agent spotted the terrorist leader outside a restaurant in Key West, but he was killed before he could pursue the case. Special Forces Operative "LT" Ethan Hastings and a team are sent to the Keys to work undercover and off the grid. Since LT is the only one left who can identity the ringleader, he gets a job at the restaurant to locate his target and dismantle the plot. However, LT has to struggle to hide the truth from the establishment's owner, Gabby Merrick. She's the woman who'd not only broken his heart three years ago but who haunts his dreams every night. Head Chef and owner of a booming Key West restaurant, Gabby Merrick not only has to prepare for a hurricane, but she has a tough decision to make, too. As much as she wants to marry Andrew Hughes, something is stopping her. In her heart of hearts, she can't accept that Ethan Hastings, the love of her life, is dead-killed on a mission in Afghanistan three years ago. What's making it worse, the bartender she just hired looks remarkably like an older version of Ethan. She's either losing her mind, or this guy IS Ethan. And if so, then where has he been all this time?
