David Wells has been standing on the bottom of a dark ocean for a long, long time. There is no happy and there is no sad. In fact, there is absolutely nothing left inside of him, and he's gotten used to it.
After the death of his brother, Davey has forgotten how to care.
But then she walked into his life.
Mia.
Blonde hair. Mega-watt smile. A million boyfriends swirling all around her.
He could never, ever compete with that, and the truth was, he didn't want to. Nope. He was definitely not interested. He liked his numbness. His lack of feeling was safe.
And yeah, maybe he'd saved her once, and then maybe he'd held her while she cried. But that one event didn't change anything in him. He was still on his path to destruction, still on his path to be with his brother.
But then well fate stepped in, or rather, an assignment from Commander Linfield. One that would change the very fabric of his life and so many other lives too, for that matter.
Because the men with the tattoos? They were back.
