Colton and Shelley's story is gritty and raw, steamy and believe it or not, sweet. These two are opposites in many ways, but the same in many more. They each hide behind different masks but deep down they just want someone to see their true self.

I absolutely love Colton King! He's so much more than the easy going Joker. Getting to know his backstory helps to see how he became the man he is. When he meets Shelley, he has truly found his other half. She's a force to be reckoned with! I love the banter between them! Shelley holds her ground and fights back with Colton, which he's not used to. Once these enemies finally let down their guard, get ready for the feels! We find that Colton has a big heart and that Shelley does too. They just get one another and see past their masks. The steam in this book is beyond compare. Whew! Get ready to fan yourself and melt. The side characters, and of course the rest of the soldiers, really make this story epic!

Be ready for dark pasts, banter for days, sexy scenes, and of course, Colton’s one liners.

I received an ARC for an honest review.
