FORGED IN COMBAT. WASHED BY GRACE. BOUND BY BROTHERHOOD.
Demolition is his specialty. But nothing prepared him for the single mom next door.
Former Navy SEAL Garrison "Demo" Holt came to South Carolina to rebuild his life after his military career went up in smoke. Now a counselor for troubled teens, he's determined to protect those who can't protect themselves—even if it puts him back in the line of fire.
Katelyn Ellis has spent years keeping her son safe by staying invisible. She knows what happens when the wrong people notice you. The last thing she needs is her protective, former-military neighbor getting involved—especially when someone from her past is still hunting her.
But when danger closes in and a violent coastal storm shatters the fragile safety she's built, Katelyn has no choice but to trust Garrison.
As threats escalate and secrets unravel, Garrison becomes the only thing standing between her family and deadly revenge.
A swoony small-town romantic suspense featuring a protective hero, a courageous single mother, and a powerful story of faith forged in the fire.
