Life is all about surviving for ex-Army helicopter pilot Hawk Gunn, until he rescues Lucky Sinclair and sparks fly, passion ignites, and they both learn to let go of the past and really start living.

Hawk Gunn has spent the last two years healing after his military career ended in a helicopter crash. Now he works with his brothers at Gunn Brothers Distillery, and to combat the guilt, remorse, grief, and undying memories, he uses his skills to find the lost and injured with his local search and rescue team. So when he finds his housekeeper near death in a ravine, he's the perfect man to save her life. After all, she saved him first.

Lucky Sinclair does not live a charmed life. Abused by her sadistic father and dismissed by her indifferent mother, she endured, until one night her high school boyfriend murdered her whole family and went to prison. Years later, it's her pen pal relationship with Hawk that makes life worth living.

It can't be coincidence that Neil's free and someone tried to kill her—more than once. Neil's out on parole—and looking for revenge? It doesn't make sense. He saved her. But someone wants her dead. As she and Hawk search for answers, the deeper they fall in love.

Hawk is on a mission to keep Lucky safe. But as evidence mounts and secrets unravel, they learn the shocking truth. The people who supposedly loved her were betraying her all along.
