I can take abuse. After all, I've been doing it for a decade.

Until today.

He reached for me and I snapped. I ran. And I hid, wherever I could.

Now I'm an accidental stowaway on a riverboat captained by an obvious nutjob. But this one's even worse than my stepdad: huge, terrifying. Angry. Bill is a ray of sunshine compared to this thug.

All I need is an escape, again. How do I get off this boat alive?

I've escaped one lunatic only to trap myself with another.

Being a SEAL was my whole life. Getting shot through the hand wasn't going to stop me. And the investigation of our so-called insubordination? Not even worried. We're innocent. The problem's up top, along with all the corruption. Always is. Go ahead and court martial my ass.

Until those pull-ups during training. Until the pins holding my hand together popped up through my skin.

Now I'm facing medical discharge, and if I can't be a SEAL, I don't know if I want to be...at all. A stint running Jacob and Emily's boat up the river in East Greenwich ought to clear my head.

Then a surprise stowaway scares the crap out of me on a lazy Saturday. The hole in my hand is only a memory...but now I'm painfully aware of this hole in my heart.

That she fills.

If only she'll have me.

Getting sniped didn't faze me one bit. But in her presence, I'm stunned.
