Lieutenant Ray Hodges was a beast of a man. In fact, he was known as 'Beast' around the Air Force base and over the last ten years of hard work he had earned the name. He lived and breathed the Air Force... but that life came to a screeching halt when he found himself close to dead and shipped back to his hometown by the beach with nothing to do but recover and work his way back to the air force. What happens when his life collides with Seychelles Roberts, a woman who lived to help anyone and everyone into a better lifestyle? And what will Seychelles do when she sees that this beast of a man needs her help? Or maybe she's the one who needs him?
