Logan survived combat and a shattered childhood by locking his emotions behind unyielding armor. He tells himself Amelia is the last woman he should ever want, using harsh judgment as a shield against the fierce pull he feels every time she enters the room.
When the friction between them ignites, they find an intimacy far deeper than either expected. But as an escalating threat closes in on Amelia and casts a shadow over the entire Campbell family, the safe distance they both relied on disappears.
To protect her, Logan must lay down the armor he's worn for years—and convince Amelia she is worthy of being loved, even when she can't find the strength to smile.
