So, on top of doing what he's been trying to accomplish. Gunner was also on a mission to get Aria to discover who she indeed was. Gunner noticed that Aria was portraying herself as a woman she wasn't-someone she thought others around her wanted her to be. But, while helping Aria find herself, he realized that he, too, was hiding behind his thick, tough skin. They were also learning together how to use mind over matter and willpower-something Gunner always thought he had. Using discipline and punishment was their way of growing stronger as a person-together. Credit for cover: selfpubbookcovers.com/kshipley
