Australian Doctor Casey Tyler has been looking for an escape from the memories of her past for a long time so when she takes a 3-month contract working for International Medical Assist the void that's present in her soul is telling her that this is what she needs to fill it. Flying from one side of the world to another she is faced with a brutal war zone and an unexpected savior in more ways than one.

Nathanial King has seen his share of brutality and war during his 10 years service in the Marines, so when a favor is called in by the CEO of IMA to protect a civilian medical team at an American base overseas he finds that his instinct to protect takes over his logic to turn it down, only he didn't know that a headstrong, mouthy Aussie doctor was going to give him more than he ever bargained for. And when a dangerous threat forces Nate to take Casey out of the way of harm and back to his home in the USA he suddenly realizes that he not only has to protect her from the threat on her life but Casey Tyler needs to be protected from herself.

As he gets deeper into her soul he unearths a painful past something darker than he has ever seen before and now he fears he may need to protect himself from the need to own her body and soul. A beautiful powerful story of pain, forgiveness, and love.

She was lost and he found her, but can he live with her secrets. .
