US Special Forces, Staff Sargeant Ethan Stone, lives by one mantra "fight or die".
The army is his life, his men are his family. So when an injury sends him home from Afghanistan, the nightmares of what he's witnessed can no longer be kept at bay. The alcohol he drowns himself in every night only sinks him further into depression's abyss. Waking after one of his benders, Stone is greeted by a tiny, knife wielding firecracker and one destroyed bar.
Saddles, was meant to be her escape. A new start away from an abusive relationship and a way to fulfill her daddy's dying wish. But all the bar has brought Shannon is debt collectors and pushy buyers threatening to destroy her. The last thing she needs is a handsome, angry soldier to distract her.
All he wanted, was to pay for the damages. But when she refuses there is only one thing he can do. But when a familiar face from his past changes everything, can they learn to work together?
Will they find salvation in each other's arms?
