Neil Khanna survived an enemy attack, a head injury, and military bureaucracy. What he did not survive peacefully was a girl who started appearing in his dreams without clearance or consent. The problem? She was very real. Neil finds her photograph in his fallen comrade's wallet and promptly develops what doctors call post-traumatic symptoms and what everyone else calls a full-blown filmy situation. As Neil sets out to locate a woman he technically has never met-but has already argued with in his sleep-he discovers that grief is complicated, guilt is inconvenient, and Indian society has absolutely no patience for men who claim they are not in love.

The Valentino brothers never expected their lives to change in a single night. Alec only meant to step in, but instead he brought home a boy who is bruised and with no family in sight. What begins as an act of protection soon becomes something deeper, drawing Zale, Lucius, and Caspian into a bond none of them were prepared for. As they care for the boy and search for answers about his past, the brothers begin to face a question they never imagined: could he become part of their family for good?
