White Out Protocol (en Inglés) - K Murphy

She was never supposed to wear the uniform again.

White Out Protocol is a high-stakes military dystopian why-choose romance featuring a former captain forced back into service, a paper marriage, found family, government conspiracy, forced proximity, three soldiers hopelessly devoted to one extremely stubborn woman, and a heroine who has never been particularly good at leaving dangerous questions unanswered.

Five years after a disastrous mission ended Captain Mara Vance’s military career, she has built something resembling a normal life. She teaches kindergarten. She raises her daughter. And she shares a home with three active-duty soldiers who know her as Mara-not the decorated captain she used to be.

Then the Western Unified Federation decides it needs her back.

Communities in the Northern Occupied Territories are collapsing. Supplies are disappearing. Civilian casualties are rising. And after years of failing to contain the crisis, the government unbenches the one recon captain stubborn enough to bring everyone home.

Mara is given one job:

Clean up the country’s mess.

So she trades construction paper for combat gear and heads north alongside Jace, Mason, and Nolan, expecting a stabilization mission.

Instead, she finds starving civilians, missing resources, military records that don’t add up-and evidence that someone inside the very government she serves may be responsible for the devastation she was sent to fix.

The deeper Mara digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes.

And the mission isn’t the only thing getting complicated.

With deployment comes risk, and with risk comes paperwork. A legal marriage to Jace is supposed to be nothing more than protection on paper-a practical solution ensuring the people they love are taken care of if one of them doesn’t come home.

No vows.

No expectations.

Definitely no feelings.

That would be considerably easier if Jace were the only man Mara was trying not to fall for.

Because somewhere between frozen military camps, stolen moments, gunfire, and uncovering a conspiracy powerful enough to reshape their entire country, the lines between teammates, roommates, family, and something far more dangerous begin to disappear.
