Breaking His Code

She doesn’t trust anyone. All he wants is someone who “gets” him.

Camilla

I’d rather be elbows deep defusing a bomb than all up in anyone’s feels, but civilian life is messy—and all I’ve got since one slip almost sent me home from my last tour in a body bag. Now I debug lines of code by day. And spend my nights with West, a retired SEAL.

It’s not what you think.

We’re online gaming buddies. Geeking out and trash talking to our hearts’ content. Until he wants to meet up. I’m weak enough to say yes, though there’s something he has to understand. I guard my heart. And I trust no one.

West

Six years after leaving the teams, the cold-sweat nightmares are only getting worse. But gaming with Cam, a fellow vet with an irreverent mouth and the uncanny ability to quiet my demons is a welcome distraction from the lack of sleep and the fact that the latest fitness fads are killing my Krav Maga studio.

She claims she doesn’t do relationships, but one date with her and I’m on fire for more. When I’m forced to take on a risky rescue mission to save my dojo, she retreats back behind her keyboard—and her secrets. I’m willing to lay it all on the line to show her broken can be beautiful. But she has to show me her raw edges—and trust that my own are a perfect fit.

Breaking His Code is the first book in the Away From Keyboard series. All books in the series are complete standalones, but past characters always show up in future books.
