She’s lost her nerve. He’s lost the body he trusted. They won’t lose each other.
Royce
I thought the Army had prepared me for anything. Until a stroke during routine surgery left me unable to ever claim “situation normal” again. I take a leave of absence from my company and start coding apps at home. Alone. Where my seizures, aphasia, and balance problems stay behind closed doors.
Then Cam and West set me up with Inara. She’s fierce, stunning, and way out of my league. Yet she laughs at my jokes and doesn’t flinch the first time I lose my words. We’re still in the sex-every-date zone when she admits she’s got a stalker.
I may not be the soldier I was. But whoever’s coming for Inara better not count me out.
Inara
One second of hesitation, and the mission was FUBAR. When I retired from the Rangers, I was the deadliest sniper in history. Now, if I can’t get my head on straight, I’ll be a liability to my K&R team.
A surprise fix-up is the last thing I need. But Royce’s understated humor and quiet intelligence are impossible to resist. He doesn’t flinch at my broken pieces—or try to hide his own.
After only a handful of dates, I’m contemplating forever. But someone’s after me, and they’ve set their sights on Royce.
I’ll do anything to save him. But I can’t fight this enemy alone. I need a team.
Good thing I have one.
