Gunner Hale earner his "claim to fame" being the biggest, strongest and hardest to take down SEAL in action. He thumbed his nose at fear and dared the enemy to take him down. He'd already faced the worst thing that could happen to a someone. There was nothing more life could take from him. He had his team mates, his best friend Riggs Walker and service.Until the day a mission went very wrong and he ended up carrying Riggs out, still alive but not whole. Riggs lost a limb, but was restored to health through the efforts of a brilliant team of doctors and a woman who went through hell to help, and save him.Gunner watched and wondered what it would feel to experience that kind of devotion and love, but sure never expected to find it. Then something unexpected happened. He met a military canine trainer, Oakley, a woman who'd lost more than most would be able to bear, but who found salvation in the love she gave the dogs she trained.Their meeting offers attraction, passion and a shared love of service to country. The question is, can it bring more or will Gunner always be watching love from the sidelines?
