She doesn't remember they've met. He never forgot. Now she's in his house--with one bed, a kid to care for, and a secret he's desperate to keep.

SLOANE
I swore off bad boys years ago--especially ones who look like sin and carry secrets. Been there, married that... and left to save myself and the daughter I'd do anything for. Now, I'm working at my best friend's coffeeshop, crashing at her brother's pad, and focused on giving my girl the childhood I never had.
But when Travis suddenly turns up--big, bruised, and a bit broken--I feel drawn to this tempting, too familiar ex-soldier. Resisting him is hard when he makes me melt with just a look and offers to watch my daughter while I work. Playing house with a battle-scarred hero isn't how I thought I'd spend the summer, but our arrangement is temporary.
So long as I can keep my hands and my heart to myself.
TRAVIS
I've chased danger my whole life--taken high-stakes risks, undercover assignments, and dodged speeding bullets. But nothing's ever struck me like her. One look, one touch, one night when we almost crossed a line. Then, I watched her marry the target I was tasked to take down.
Years later, I'm home, recuperating and reconsidering my life. I never expect to find my dream divorcee living in my house, courtesy of my soft-hearted sister. Sloane doesn't recognize me, but I remember every detail about her and the pull between us is still strong. I should tell her the truth, but I'm afraid she'll stop looking at me the way she does--as someone steady, stable, safe. Things I've never been. But for her? For her little girl? I want to be.
And this time, I won't walk away.
