He loved her in silenceā¦because loving her out loud was never an option.
Former Navy SEAL Sawyer Maddox has spent most of his life protecting others from the shadows. Calm under pressure. Loyal to the core. And painfully aware that the woman he's always cared about is completely off-limits.
Anastasia Knox is the little sister of one of his best friendsā¦and the one woman Sawyer has never been able to forget. She's built a quiet life in their small coastal town, doing her best to be content with a relationship that looks right on paper. But when anonymous messages turn into late-night threats, that fragile sense of safety shatters.
Sawyer doesn't hesitate. He moves in. Steps closer. Putting himself between Anastasia and the dangerāno matter the cost. Even if it means crossing lines he swore he never would.
Because the longer he's near her, the harder it is to ignore the truth.
She doesn't belong with the man she's with.
She belongs with him.
A gripping romantic suspense about faith, sacrifice, and a soldier who will risk everything for the woman he was never meant to love.
