Passion flares when duty confronts ambition… Kace Jaager, former Army archaeologist, now Superintendent of Fort America National Park, has a duty to preserve and protect the natural beauty and cultural heritage of the United States. Madison Danes, ambitious CEO of Danergy Mining & Hydraulics, has a government contract to conduct fracking on federal land at Fort America National Park. Sparks ignite as ideologies collide. Yet uncontrollable desire compels a truce in bed. Opposites may attract, but can they put politics aside to form a more perfect union? Resistance is an enemies-to-lovers contemporary seasoned romance with a 53-year-old silver fox hero and a 42-year-old heroine in her prime. The short novel is part of the Common Elements Romance Project, where over seventy romance authors have come together to write stories with five things in common. Stories are not connected in any way, except for having five elements: a lightning storm, lost keys, a haunted house, a stack of thick books, and a person named Max.
