Base Branch Series by Megan Mitcham
Genres: Adult, Romance, Suspense

When friends become enemies and enemies become lovers.

Born in the blood of Sierra Leone’s Civil War, enslaved, then sold to the US as an orphan, Base Branch operative, Sloan Harris is emotionally dead and driven by vengeance. With no soul to give, her body becomes the bargaining chip to infiltrate a warlord’s inner circle, the man called The Devil who killed her family and helped destroy a region.

As son of the warlord, Baine Kendrick will happily use Sloan’s body, if it expedites his father’s demise. Yet, he is wholly unprepared for  the possessive and protective emotions she provokes. Maybe it’s the flashes of memory. Two forgotten children drawing in the dirt beneath the boabab tree. But he fears there is more at stake than his life.

In the Devil’s den with Baine by her side, Sloan braves certain death and discovers a spirit for living.

For justice. For country. For love.

After witnessing her friend’s sexual assault, seven year senior, Magdalena Wells escapes an attack with a few bruises and a thousand  questions. As a journalist in practice, if not in pay, Mags vows to utilize the skills she mastered in the Democratic Republic of Congo and answer every single one, just as soon as she gets the hell out of town.

Law Pierce’s aim is rest and relaxation after two years undercover in South Africa on an extended Base Branch mission, but restlessness puts him in trouble’s path. As a servant of justice, Law will do everything in his power to keep trouble safe. The fact that trouble’s petite stature and luscious curves stir his every primal instinct is a massive inconvenience he struggles to ignore.

Together Magdalena and Law uncover a web of corruption and dirty lies that could set their country’s top official ablaze, if the inferno doesn’t consume them first.

One takes control. One finds balance in letting go.

Base Branch operative, Ryan Noble is accustomed to taking orders whether from his commander or his overbearing mother. His best friend urged him to take control of his life, but the only thing worse than an angry woman is a teary one. He has no desire to upset his mother’s fragile emotions. Losing his sister was hard enough, his mom couldn’t bear losing another child. Even if it is to the other side of D.C. It’s a damn good thing she doesn’t know what he does for a living.

On a routine mission to destroy a cargo free human trafficking facility and exterminate it’s operators, Ryan blows his extraction to rescue a woman he finds chained inside.

Piper Vega is caught between metal and a hard place. She needs information and it has taken far too long to cull it from her leads, also known as her captors. She finally has the facts she needs to complete her task, but it’ll take a miracle to set her free and see it achieved. Santo Padre knows she never expected her good favor to come in the form of a man.

Ryan takes the reins of life in his sturdy grip while Piper discovers balance in loosening hers. Through intense battles of will, both find the unexpected.

Interview

Where did you get the idea for Enemy Mine?

Enemy Mine came first as a single stand alone novel. The idea sparked while watching a documentary, First Position. Yes, it’s about ballet. No, I’m not a ballerina. But it was winter and I was nursing a newborn for hours on end, which lent itself well to snuggling and binging on TV (which I never do). The film told the story of Michaela DePrince, born in the height of Sierra Leone’s civil war, orphaned, adopted by an American couple to become one of the world’s elite ballerinas. Her physical power, grace, and inner strength awed me. I found myself thinking of her, her struggle and rise from unimaginable heartache. The seed germinated into Enemy Mine.

What projects are you working on now? When is your next project expected to be released?

Warrior Mine (book 4 - Vail’s story) will release January 2015. I have also submitted two short stories for anthologies to Cleis Press, who has published some of my earlier works. I am also writing For All to See, the first novel in the Bureau Series due out April 2015.

How many books are in the Base Branch Series?

Enemy Mine is the first of the Base Branch Series. Also released with it are Justice Mine (book 2 - Law’s story) and Stranger Mine (book 3 - Ryan’s story). There are seven novels plotted in this series. Each follows a hero and heroine previously met in the series, but the heroes and heroines from past novels are know to drop in on occasion.

What do you do when you’re not writing?

Sleep. Kidding! I have a wonderful family to nurture, for which I am ever grateful and exhausted. Since writing and reading require me to be still so many hours in the day, when I’m not writing I’m moving; working out, running, biking, kayaking, horse-back riding, playing with our horse-sized dogs, doing laundry, dishes, taxiing. Also known as…life.
