She's got enemies. He's got scars. Together, they'll face a war neither of them expected.
Gerard Guidry fought hard for his country — and lost a piece of himself in the process. Medically discharged and recruited into the Bayou Brotherhood Protectors, he's ready for his first major solo assignment: guarding a stubborn farm girl with a target on her back.
Widowed and alone, Bernie Bellamy's life depends on the land — and the animals she calls family. When her friend Gertrude is murdered and the threats close in, she turns to the Brotherhood for protection.
A fish out of water, Gerard doesn't know anything about farms or feelings — but as danger circles and sparks fly, he'll have to decide if love is a risk worth taking... or a weakness that could get them both killed.
In the bayou, love can be just as dangerous as the enemies chasing you.
