Art from Darkness

Retired Navy SEAL Sam Slater has returned to his hometown of Fort Worth, TX, working with Homeland Security to curb the increasing smuggling of illegal drugs and weapons out of Mexico. Despite his efforts to build a future, Sam is haunted by past failures in Afghanistan, a reminder of his inability to protect those he loves. His struggles are made more difficult when he meets freelance journalist Kate Hunter. Carlos Ramirez, attaché to the Mexican consulate, has his eye on Kate. He is the middle son of the powerful Ramirez drug cartel, which is expanding their operations to include weapon smuggling. His role as attaché is a perfect front for their illegal activities. But Carlos' ambition doesn't stop there. He is determined to have Kate as his wife and First Lady of Mexico. Carlos is wealthy, charming, and the very definition of a gentleman, everything Kate always thought she would want in a mate. Sam must find the evidence to shut down the Ramirez cartel and overcome his fear of failure to win Kate's love.
