But one day when she's driving her kids to the store, a van forces her to stop on the road and armed men drag her out of the car, kidnapping her children. Little does she know her ex-husband Carl is in league with the Centurions, a group of politically powerful and wealthy man hell-bent on getting what they want, the law be damned. And the Centurions have no intention of letting one woman's love for her children interfere with their plans... Navy SEAL chief Sean Harlan has a soft spot for Ellie.
