The Tracker by Theresa Beachman

He was sent to bring her home.
She may be the one who reminds him how to live.

Former Navy SEAL Pav Morozov survives off the grid in Siberia—invisible, alone, and determined never to need anyone again. He disappeared into the frozen wilderness because it was safer than being human and after a life built on violence, it’s the only way he knows how to exist.

Until his past kicks down his door.
Guardsmen Security needs the best tracker in Russia to extract a humanitarian medic from a brutal trafficking ring. The mission is simple: get in, get the doctor, get out.

But Dr. Harper Fox isn’t leaving without the women she came to protect. Pav agrees–and that’s where straightforward ends. The extraction goes sideways, their helicopter goes down in hostile territory, and suddenly they’re alone in a Siberian blizzard with enemies closing in and three days to reach the border.

Hunted. Injured. And running out of time.
Survival depends on Pav’s lethal skills and Harper’s unbreakable will. But Harper looks at him like he’s still worth saving—like he’s still alive. And Pav can’t remember the last time anyone saw him that way.

The wilderness doesn’t forgive mistakes. Neither does falling for someone when you’ve spent years convincing yourself you don’t deserve it.

He was sent to bring her home.
She may be the one who reminds him how to live.
