To us,
first responders are heroes. But for them, risking their lives is a normal,
everyday thing.
Mudflap:
Born the
baby of the family, Mudflap has always had something to prove to emerge out of
the shadows of his older siblings. He spent eight years as a Special Ops elite
sniper and is now a firefighter. But at his heart, he’s just a normal West
Texas good old boy who loves his beer, women and football, until the Department
of Defense calls him up to say they need his skills again.
Shanae:
Shanae is a
first responder of a different sort. She’s a trauma nurse who works on a
medical evacuation helicopter team. But while she lives a life full of
adrenaline every day, it’s just a cover for her real life, where she hides in
the shadows and is secret agent, Shadowfox for the Lubbock Foxtrot Team (LiFT).
She’s living the kind of life that most people think exists only in movies and
books.
Working for
two different branches of the government, Mudflap and Shanae are in a race
against time and the terrorists who threaten the very heart of West Texas life,
football. They’re working toward the same goal, but find themselves in a
confrontation against each other and the lies they’ve each had to hide behind.
Can love win out in the end or will the cost be each other and their very
lives?
First
responders are heroes every day, but this story tells the tale of when they
become even more and find love along the way. The key is for them to stay alive
so that they can complete their mission and just maybe live happily ever after.
On an ordinary day, they save lives.
On an extraordinary day, they save the country.

She took a sip of her wine and looked at
him appraisingly. “Okay, now it’s your turn to share. Tell me how in the world
you got the name Mudflap. It has to be a nickname, right?”
He chuckled mockingly. “Unfortunately,
no. It’s the name that my parents gave me on my birth certificate.”
“Why? And please tell me you’re an only
child or that they didn’t do the same thing to your brothers and sisters.”
His eyes sparkled with amusement
although he tried to sound annoyed. “Are
you making fun of my name?”
She worked to straighten her grin. “No
sir, I would never make fun of a highbrow name like Mudflap.” She giggled.
“Come on. You have to tell me the story.”
He sighed deeply before launching into
the story. “I have a brother who’s seven years older than me and then twin
sisters who are five years older.”
“Ooh, twins run in your family, too.
That settles it. We’re never allowed to procreate. We’d end up having a
litter,” she teased.
His eyes darkened for a moment as he
considered her. A shiver of awareness rolled up her spine, but then he
continued. “I wasn’t planned. My mom never forgave my dad for getting her
pregnant. To add insult to injury, my dad was out hunting when mom went into
labor. I’m not sure what the story is, but mom swears the night I was conceived
dad was so horny, he got turned on by a mudflap girl. Obviously, that’s not
even possible, but I honestly don’t really want to know what the whole story
is. All I know is that mom was hormonal and ticked at dad and I paid for it
with my name. She’s since forgiven me for being born, but I’m stuck with the
name.”
Shanae snickered. “That is so wrong.”
But her lips continued to twitch.
“Tell me about it. I’m the one who’s had
to live with the name my whole life.”
“Have you ever considered changing it?”
“Yeah, it’s crossed my mind a time or
two or hell, one hundred times, but I figure it’s a good reminder to always use
birth control.”
She full-out guffawed at that. “Oh my
God.” The snorting continued. “That’s absolutely priceless.” She giggled into
her hand.
“Oh yeah, just continue to laugh it up.
I see how you are.”
“I’m sorry, but it really is a great
story.”
