Mercenary Crush

Thad Langham's life has been a series of unfortunate events—from being blackmailed to being coerced into working with his father on his shady business deals. When the opportunity presents itself to turn his entire life around, he takes it.

Caleb Lockhart, the resident sniper of Unit Alpha, can't quite get Thad out of his mind. Moody, serious, and practiced at hiding his emotions, Thad is a complete work in progress. He isn't quite ready to date just yet, but that doesn't stop impulsive, brash Caleb from acting on his baser urges. One kiss is all it takes, and now they can't get each other out of their minds.

Six months later, a chance encounter leads Thad and Caleb down the road to an actual relationship. But when Thad's past comes back to rear its ugly head, how can a brash and headstrong sniper and a damaged, slightly neurotic businessman make things work? Will their mutual attraction survive the test of time or will their relationship just remain a mercenary's crush?
