Whirlwind
She ran to survive. He stayed to fight. Together, they’ll face the storm.
Battered but unbroken, Aspen has finally escaped her personal nightmare, yet the past still lingers in every quiet moment. Across the country, she seeks the courage to open her heart and trust in a love that can heal her deepest wounds.
Grayson, a battle-worn military veteran, carries scars only she can understand. When Aspen enters his life—strong, fierce, and achingly real—he sees someone worth protecting. Quietly, he’s drawn to her in ways he never expected, ready to be there whenever she needs him. He is determined to keep her safe from the shadows of her past and the darkness within himself.
Their connection is instant, charged with spicy, undeniable chemistry. Beneath the heat, a tender dance of trust, vulnerability, and desire unfolds. But as his need to protect collides with her fight for independence, their love will be tested, and both will have to learn what it truly means to surrender to one another.
