Dragon fears no man, except for those who are dead set on taking away what's his. With them going underground, and with no trace of the Fundamentalist of the Communion anywhere in sight, his hands are virtually tied. But that won't keep him down. He doesn't believe in the word quit. Never has, and never will. He will pull out all the stops to keep his family, his treasure, safe.

Laney, she's his most valuable possession. His queen. He'll put his heart and soul into it, and keep her where she belongs—at his side where he can protect her.

Laney is still struggling with her past and moving forward. Nightmares still spring up from the darkness when she closes her eyes. But a new opportunity presents itself, and it's one she can't resist. She dives in headfirst. She'll do whatever it takes to be the woman and mother her man and kid can be proud of. She refuses to be another person's pawn. She will conquer her demons, even if that means making herself vulnerable by sharing her history with a stranger.

She will be brave. She will be strong—no matter what the stakes may be.

Can these two reign together, as a united couple, or will they crumble and fall?
