After Marine scout sniper Niccolo Ferrari lost his best buddy, spotter Pietro "Pete" Galletti, to an Iraqi sniper gunning for the bounty on Nico's head, he goes solo to avoid any more collateral damage. Though he becomes one of the most dangerous snipers in the Corps, Nico's harrowing experiences leave him psychologically bruised and battered. He comes to the Sanctuary military training camp to decompress, to regain his confidence--and his humanity.At Sanctuary's front door, he comes face to face with Game Warden Abigail O'Connell; the shock nearly stops his heart. He knows her features like the back of his own hand--she was Pete's fiancée, the woman in Pete's photos, the woman whom Nico fell for from a distance, who he's lusted after in silence for years.Abigail swore off men, yet she can't deny the immediate heat, the unwanted sexual attraction to the emotionally damaged Marine. Nico can't tell her that he's her dead fiance's best friend. How can he when the urge to take her to his bed, to slide into her body, to stay there forever, is all consuming? If he tells her, he'll lose her; if he doesn't, their growing love is a lie.
