Guardian (Captain America FF book 2)

Steve grieves over the loss of Jade. He blames only himself. His heart was longing for Jade. The Avengers were never the same. The once lively tower felt more empty and quiet than ever before. Spencer had left with his parents and returned to Xander to go to The Intergalactic Armada Academy.

Steve was broken, yes. But what they didn't know is that Jade still lived. Well, sort of. Hydra had kept her prisoner for two years. Two years of endless torture, beatings, and sleepless nights. But things all begin to change when Jade learns about her heritage when she finally frees herself. Jade defies all odds Just being alive was a miracle in its own. She fights for what's right. She gets her ledger clean. She tries to fix things. She tries to remake herself. But she failed. Jades past over run her and destroys her from the inside out. No matter how much the others help her there is one only escape.

Do not read unless you have read Not So Innocent (book one) or this book will make no sense.
