That all changed the day a mission for the Army turned south, forcing him to take the life of a child soldier. Now, the jokester mask he wears to hide his pain is put to the test when his best friend's sister needs his help. No matter how hard he tries to convince himself he shouldn't taint her with his tarnished soul, her nurturing presence tempts him to break the bro code of staying away from your friend's sister.

Can Rafe keep Piper safe when the evasive threat turns deadly?
