"Silent Valor": Love in the Margins of Time (Book 13)

Silent Valor
He survived war, but not peace.
Logan Shaw, former Delta Force operator, has returned from Afghanistan with scars no one can see and ghosts he can't outrun. Haunted by a failed mission, a lost brother-in-arms, and a trail of betrayal, he spirals into a life of isolation, alcohol, and regret.
Until he stumbles into a quiet coastal town and meets Claire Holloway, a woman whose strength is quieter than his rage, but twice as enduring.
As Claire helps Logan rebuild his life, his past refuses to stay buried. When a long-lost comrade resurfaces with secrets that could unravel everything, Logan must choose between burying the truth and risking the fragile peace he's only just begun to find.
Can love survive the fire of memory?
Or will the war he left behind finally claim him for good?
Silent Valor is a gripping, redemptive love story about trauma, trust, and the fight to come home, not just in body, but in heart.
