Nikki Blake lived a hard life in New York before meeting Bryan Richards. Running away from home at twelve she spent four years working the streets until the gruff retired Marine found her. Befriending her, offering her a home with no strings attached, Nikki knew she owed Bryan her life. Now at twenty-five, a hardcore Goth rocker, Nikki fronted an up and coming metal band and she could no longer deny the feelings growing in her heart for a man that refused to see her as anything but his adopted daughter.

Bryan Richards, old enough to be Nikki’s father, had demons of his own left over from his years of combat. Demons that left him unable to feel love or affection as most men did, he long ago gave up on finding a companion for his soul. But Bryan Richards didn’t count on one young woman’s determination to work her way into his heart, even if it meant she had to give up everything she was in the process.
