She’s running from a nightmare. He’s determined to be her salvation.

JOY

After talking to Little Grandma, I thought coming home to Jasper Creek would make me finally feel safe. Allow me to breathe and stop me from looking over my shoulder. I could finally start living my real life, not live in the shadows.

Working at the Jasper Creek Animal Clinic, and living with Miss Laverne, seemed like small steps in the right direction. Easy steps that I could handle after what happened to me in London.

Then, with one look, Graham Wallace—six feet, four inches of pure Navy SEAL muscle and tattooed charm—walked into Miss Laverne’s kitchen and shattered my carefully constructed walls. This man is dangerous. Not because of the motorcycle or the military background, but because he makes me believe in things I swore I’d never trust again. Like safety. Like belonging. Like the crazy idea that someone like me could have a happily ever after.

I should have known better. The unwanted flowers, the ominous notes, warnings that I’d never thought would follow me to Jasper Creek, started showing up three weeks after our first kiss.

GRAHAM

Wham! Joy Magill hit me like a freight train wrapped in sunshine and curves. One taste of her homemade cake, one look at that infectious smile lighting up Miss Laverne’s kitchen, and I was gone. Completely, utterly screwed.

She thinks she’s not worth fighting for. Her pig-headed brothers think I’m not good enough for their baby sister who just came running back home. But they don’t know what I know—that this woman is mine, and I’d burn down the whole damn world before I’d let anyone hurt her again.

The psycho sending her flowers made a fatal mistake. He followed her to my town. He came after my woman.

I’ve got Simon Clark and the men of Onyx Security, hell all the men of Jasper Creek, ready to go to war. I’ve got twelve years of lethal Navy training. And I’ve got zero patience for cowards who stalk innocent women.

Time for this sick freak to learn what happens when you threaten a SEAL’s family.

Some women need saving. Some men need a war to fight. Sometimes, they find each other.
