This is a dark romance intended for the 18+ audience.
Bailee Sterling is a 28-year-old waitress stuck in her small town. While her older brother, Kayden, is deployed in the military, she’s forced to take care of her alcoholic father, putting up with emotional and physical abuse for the sake of being her only family.

But when mysterious men come knocking on her door and inform her of Kayden’s death, everything changes.

One of the men, Draven Romanov, a 29-year-old Special Forces Lieutenant, was the one she tapped out at the bootcamp graduation ceremony a decade ago. Ever since then, she’s been on his mind and a little glimmer of hope through every hardship he’s endured. Before he knew who she truly was, he’s already made a vow to her brother to protect her.

And that’s exactly what he’s going to do, even if it means protecting her from himself.
