Snipers refer to a point where a decision made could change the
course of a target's journey, as the release point. When Maddox Devereaux
walked away from Glenn Webster six months ago, he’d reached that point and the
path he chose meant he could never go back.
Maddox headed into combat and eventually found himself being held
captive and tortured in South America by the head of a drug cartel hell bent on
revenge. For Maddox, he felt as if that might just be his penance.
Glenn was tired of his team thinking that he was broken. Yes he
had been raped, yes it had been horrible, but he had found a way to deal with
that. What he was finding hard to process was how he had pushed Maddox away
right when he needed him most.
When they find out that Maddox is being held captive, Bravo do
what they do best. They load up and go to war. Maddox comes home and it takes
all of them to help him heal. Little do they know, they are now the ones being
hunted.
Can Glenn and Maddox find their way back together, or will this
release point result in an outcome neither of them will survive?

TEASER:
On the floor
just inside the door, a man lay dead, a nasty looking knife wound at his
temple. When Glenn’s gaze moved to the back of the room, he saw two men fully
engaged in a knife battle. Both were bleeding heavily, but fighting with a
confidence that spoke of hours of training. But only one of them was a man
Glenn knew better than himself.
Glenn lifted
his gun to put a bullet in the Hispanic man who was swinging his knife toward
his spotter, but stopped when Maddox threw him a quick glance that gave Glenn
pause. For whatever reason, Maddox needed to do this. Glenn cursed when Maddox
moved with his opponent, putting his back toward Glenn. There were large strips
of skin missing from his back, and huge, bleeding red welts. Add to that the
knife wound Glenn had spotted on Maddox’s upper chest and the huge gash that
marred his stomach, and he had no clue how he hell the man was still standing.
As he
watched, Maddox’s opponent faked right in a move so obvious Glenn knew it was
over. A split second later, Maddox cried out in triumph as he drove his knife
to the hilt into the top of the other man’s skull. He was dead before he hit
the ground. Maddox turned, swaying on his feet, his breathing heavy and fast.
The two of
them stood in that hellhole, the smell of blood, and death thick in the air,
and simply stared at each other. Maddox’s expression was one Glenn had never
seen before. He had witnessed Maddox dispatch their enemies without any
hesitation, doing what had to be done, but there was always a flicker of pain
at having to take another man’s life. Especially in war when both were simply
following the orders of others. In this moment, there was no remorse. No pain.
No emotion whatsoever. It was as if Maddox had checked out.
Glenn
stepped forward cautiously. “Maddox?” An ache appeared in the center of his
chest when Maddox flinched.
“Am I dead?”
Maddox asked in a stilted voice.
Glenn
frowned. “Nah, man, you won that fight. You’re still standing.”
“Are you
sure?” Maddox’s voice was slurred.
“Yeah,
brother,” Marcel said from his position by the door. “You are definitely still
standing, but we have no idea how the fuck you’re doing it.”
“Stubborn
ass willpower would be my guess,” Dev growled as he strode forward, stepping
past Glenn and approaching Maddox. Dev stopped immediately when Maddox shied
away. “Maddox?”
“Why’re
y’all here?”
Dev moved a
step closer. “We’re here for you, dumb ass. You’re Bravo.”
Maddox shook
his head. “No. Not Bravo. No absolution for me. I … failed–”
