This was a good quick read. There are a number of typos, but nothing too terribly bad.Patrick is a Navy Seal, who has been on a mission for the last six months. While their ship stops in Curaao, he decides to visit one of the local brothels for some no-strings female attention.  As he's getting ready to leave, the girl looks him in the eye and says, “My name is Annie Hamilton. I'm an American citizen. I was kidnapped from a cruise ship five years ago. You're my last hope. Please save me.”At first Patrick doesn't believe her.  Annie has track marks on her arms from heroine use and he thinks she's just trying to use him for money.  He leaves her, but can't stop thinking about her and wondering if she is telling the truth.  He begins researching her name on the computer and discovers she is wasn't lying and is the missing girl.  She had shown him a couple of distinctive marks, a tattoo and a scar, which further confirm she is Annie.  Patrick gets a couple of his best friends/Seal teammates to help him come up with a plan to save her.There are a couple of twists you don't expect.  Annie has to go through a detox period which isn't fun.  You will not like Annie's dad - he's a JERK!  But through it all, no matter how much Patrick fights his attraction to Annie, he continues to fall for her and grow more protective.  Annie is a very strong and brave young woman.  She cares deeply for Patrick and when she's with him, she feels safe.Patrick's teammates are really nice and I read in another review that there will be additional books in this series about them and possibly one from Annie's POV telling the events of her kidnapping.This is a stand alone book with no cliffhanger and it does have a happy ending.
