Shadow Games: He was raised to survive, not love (The South-Hurst Syndicate #5)

The finale to The South-Hurst Syndicate Series.

Dorien "D. Lowe" Loweman has lived most of his life in the shadows. Trained as a child, forged into a mercenary, and now the coldest enforcer in the South-Hurst Syndicate. Quiet, calculated, and lethal, D. Lowe trusts no one and loves nothing except his brothers. That is, until Stacey Monroe, an abuse survivor with a daughter and a guarded heart, crashes into his world.

Fleeing a violent husband who wears both a badge and mask of rage, Stacey has no time for anything other than survival. But when D. Lowe offers her safety, peace and something ever rarer... patience, she begins to trust again. Slowly, gently, their connection grows from protection to partnership. From survival to sacred.

But you have to fight for peace in South-Hurst.

Her abusive husband, a dirty cop named Tyson Monroe escalates a twisted vendetta against the Syndicate. D. Lowe is forced back into the life he thought he buried. One of strategic warfare, and ghosts with familiar faces. With the Syndicate and their women under attack, and Stacey and her daughter in danger, D. Lowe must reveal secrets that could destroy everything.

As his past collides with his future, the quiet soldier must fight a final fight... for love, redemption, and the right to finally step out of the shadows.
