A devastating mission and rumors of corruption within the ranks have left her questioning everything, even herself. Now, she's supposed to protect the very company that might be responsible for the loss of her team.

The work is almost enough to keep him from dreams that won't rest. Dreams of his first love. But when Sam walks back into Caleb's life, his dreams are replaced with stark realities about his work and his past. The answers they both seek aren't easily won, but neither is willing to let go of hope this time around. Can they hold on to a second chance at love while fighting to secure humanity's future?Formerly published as Temporary Duty Assignment, this is the first in the Seeds of Hope series.
