Owen Black’s life is defined by discipline, duty, and the secrets of his past. As the commander of a hidden mountain compound, he protects a brotherhood of ex-soldiers—men who, like him, were subjected to experimental drugs that left them with extraordinary abilities and made them targets. Love isn’t part of his mission, nor is it something he believes he deserves. Grace Lane creates beauty with her hands—beadwork, flower arrangements, and the occasional mended heart. When she meets the stoic, gravel-voiced man, something about his guarded eyes calls to her creative spirit. She wants to bring color to his world, even if it means stepping outside her comfort zone to pursue him. But Owen’s world is more dangerous than Grace could imagine. After their connection deepens, he’s forced to reveal the the men on the mountain were experimental subjects, tortured and transformed, now hiding from those who would exploit them. Their enemies would stop at nothing—even targeting an innocent baby—to reclaim what they believe belongs to them. As Grace falls deeper in love with Owen, she must decide if she can embrace his complicated reality and the risks that come with it. And Owen must determine if he can let love into his carefully controlled world without compromising the safety of everyone he’s sworn to protect. Be prepared for incredible men and women, an adorable baby and indomitable hope as these war veterans take a chance on a new location. And new love...
