Description from the publisher:
He left an arm behind in Fallujah,
but he'll tear apart anyone who threatens his mate.
Briggs Dawson was just trying to lay low. After gaining national attention as the first and only Bear Shifter drafted into a professional football league, he left amid swarming controversy. He decided to serve his country and went overseas, returning as one of the many wounded. Now, just as he's trying to adjust to being a civilian, his past and his future collide.
Katrina Crawford wanted to get help for her brother Toby, but there was only so much you could do. You could drag a horse to rehab but you couldn't make him work the program, as the saying went. With her lab working her overtime coming up with a prototype prosthetic, the little fights with Toby about his lack of sobriety were all that was keeping her sane.
Before either of them know it, their world is turned upside down and they're forced to fight for their lives and their love!
This 50,000+ word novel has hot Bear Shifter action, a Happily Ever After, no cheating and no cliffhangers!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BATTLE SCARRED is a stand-alone
paranormal romance with a happily ever after ending.
One of the things that I really
liked about this story was that our heroine, Kat, is the strongest
character. The two main men, Briggs, her
love interest, and Toby, her twin brother, have been homeless and defeated by
life in general. Kat’s weakness, while
she is compassionate, is that she is not as emotional as you would expect a
woman to be. Life has made her
hard. She would probably say she is just
a realist.
I love that the growing
relationships between these three characters (and Kat’s boss) softens all of
them and makes them better people.
Heart-warming and captivating, I
couldn’t put it down. Even though it
touches on many difficult subjects – PTSD, discrimination, drug abuse, and
stalking – it was never depressing or exceedingly frightening. Instead, it was enjoyable and hope filled.
Note: while I was given this book as a gifted ARC,
my opinions are my own and are given freely.
