marriage

Emily: Once upon a time, my stepfather ignored me and my mother acted like she’d forgotten me. But then she died and he decided the only way to get what he wanted was through me. I told him no, but he didn’t listen, and now he won’t stop.

I have to get away, and Gage Saint is the only man who makes me feel safe.

Gage: I don’t do people. I don’t deserve to. The Army doesn’t want me anymore and I can’t blame them. The men I served with were closer than brothers, and how did I repay that? By letting them down. This girl, though? When I wake up with her in my arms and can’t remember how the fuck she got there, I know one thing for sure. I’m not letting her down. Not ever.
