Cruz’s Watch by Stacey Wilk

Former Lieutenant Colonel Cruz Lacerda, wants to move past his failed marriage. He should be focused on his new job with the Brotherhood Protectors or on the treks he takes to put miles between his broken heart and his soon-to-be ex-wife, but he’s not. When Ayla interrupts his plans for another hike, he can no more refuse her than he can stop himself from planning every detail of a combat weatherman’s mission. Before he knows it, he finds himself, standing before her faced with a choice he’d rather not make.
Professional photographer Ayla Lacerda chases tornados. She takes footage of the extreme storms, standing only feet from danger as she snaps and records. Deadly weather gave her a career but took away so much more. She can’t stop running toward the storms, even if she wanted to—and she just might this time. Before she makes that crucial decision to end the career she loves, she needs Cruz to help her catch nature’s uncertainty and will do whatever necessary to have him by her side.

In a race to intercept the menacing twisters, Ayla and Cruz will be forced to reexamine their relationship and decide what’s most important—holding onto the past, finding a path toward the future, or capturing the monster in the sky.
