This spirals him down a dark path and into the hands of the Central Intelligence Agency, but Trey's skills are in football and gymnastics, not guns and espionage. He's not the first twenty-one-year-old to make a mistake but may be the first to fall involuntarily into a dark ops protocol.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial Officer Rick Morgan's blood is boiling. The CIA has plucked Trey from his normal life, threatened to disclose his sexual orientation, and forced him to join their covert unit, just as the Marines had done to him. Every time he looks at Trey, he feels both an unwavering commitment to their mission and a deep, unfamiliar urge to . . . do something to the muscular young man. Protect him? Seduce him?
