The moment I woke up from brain surgery, I knew I was screwed. Too off balance, too slow, too broken to ever again claim "situation normal." Now I spend my free time-I've got a lot of it-coding apps and avoiding the world. Until my knucklehead friends set me up. Everything about Inara is so gorgeous I forget my own name, much less how to form recognizable words. I'm definitely not looking for love, but maybe it's time to live a little dangerously. I'm the best damned sniper in the country. But after a mission gone horrifically wrong, I have to find a way to repack my scattered emotions in a stronger box. Or I may never fire another shot. My friends think they're doing me a favor, playing matchmaker. I can't deny there's a spark with Royce that quickly flares into an inferno. But when my past catches up with me, it's a stark reminder why I shouldn't trust my heart to anyone. Because if I lose everything, I won't be the only one going down.
