Book One : Cambodia
Slade Wilson is paid to kill, not to rescue girls from brothels in the middle of a war.
But when he finds her again-barefoot, shaking, holding a baby that isn't hers-walking away stops being an option.
He doesn't speak her language. She doesn't know his name. The only things they share are a child, a jungle full of enemies, and the way she clings to him like he's the safest monster she's ever met.
This is a dark, slow-burn romance about a mercenary who never meant to care and a woman who has every reason to fear him... and chooses him anyway.
