Distance couldn't break it. Time couldn't touch it. Some things are destined.

Ben Brahms was the brainy best friend turned battle-hardened Navy SEAL-leaving behind his Ivy League dreams, thick glasses, and the girl he secretly loved when the world turned dark. Now, he's a man forged by war and sacrifice. Saving the world is second nature. Saving himself? Not so much.

Harper Rosehall chased the life they once imagined-acing college, building a career across the country, and growing into the fearless woman he always believed she could be. But no amount of success quiets the voice that whispers his name...or pulls her back to the place where it all began.

Years apart. A broken pact. A connection that won't fade. As fate brings them face-to-face again, old wounds reopen, and the cost of what they lost might be more than either is ready to face.

In a world that takes everything, can Ben and Harper find their way back to each other...before it's too late?
