This is my first book and there is a lot of errors I do apologise.

When former Marine Hope Carey joins the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, she's not just stepping into the nation's most elite profiling team-she's stepping into a warzone of trauma, violence, and secrets. With a five-year-old Son at home, a haunted past behind her, and a sharp mind honed by battlefield instincts, Hope is ready to take on serial killers. What she's not ready for is Supervisory Special Agent Aaron Hotchner.

He's rigid. Controlled. Cold. Everything she isn't.
And everything she shouldn't want.

As cases grow darker and danger draws closer, the walls between them begin to crack. First respect. Then tension. Then something neither can afford to name.

But just as Hope starts to rebuild the life she thought she'd lost-balancing motherhood, fieldwork, and the stirrings of something real-fate rips it all apart. A deployment, a betrayal, a child in danger. And in the middle of it all, the one man who both breaks her heart and steadies her soul.

In a world where every second matters and love is the most dangerous risk of all, Codename: Ivy is a gripping FBI romance packed with high-stakes action, smoldering slow-burn, and the unshakable truth that some hearts are meant to survive anything.
