He’s the beast lurking within the shadows. She’s the beauty living in the light.

Cooper Kane, the big, bad Navy Seal, had it all - honor, respect, the love of a beautiful woman, the unbreakable bond with his team - but a crash cost him everything. Oh, he survived. His heart still pumped, he took in breath, he lived, if that’s what you want to call the reclusive life his had become. Then, he saw her.
