Silver Sanctuary: The Silver Springs Series Book 3 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781972490082)

Former Navy SEAL Nash Caldwell may have grown up under the bright blue skies of Montana, and traveled the world as a member of an elite special forces team, but he's found purpose in Silver Springs, Texas, alongside his four closest friends. He's a man people can count on... but the guilt of recently failing to protect someone he loves still runs deep. So when he sees Lacy Graves, the town's new florist, facing suspicion, judgment, and escalating threats, Nash makes a decision: protect her and her daughter at any cost.

Lacy never thought she'd return to the town that refused to forgive her for her mother's sins. But with an urgent need to protect her bright and gifted nine-year-old daughter, Embrie, she returns to her hometown with dreams of building a new life. Even with decades between her and the horrible tragedy her mother caused, the whispers are still just as cruel, the danger even more real. And this time, it's not just her reputation on the line.

When veiled threats escalate to true danger, Nash asks Lacy to marry him. Not for show, but for real. He wants to give her his name, his protection, and a future. But Lacy, still weighed down by guilt and terrified of ruining Nash's good name, insists on a trial run. An arrangement that gives her an out if he ever changes his mind.

Nash knows he isn't going anywhere. He's not only determined to protect his girls, he's ready to make them his family... forever. As shadows from the past threaten the fragile peace they've built, Nash must prove his love isn't a rescue mission, it's a promise. And Lacy must decide if she can believe in the kind of love that stays, no matter the obstacle it comes up against.

In a town that never forgets and rarely forgives, can a woman with a tarnished name find sanctuary in the man willing to risk everything to protect her... or will the past rip away the future they never thought they'd have?
