Always You (Guardian Hall 1)
In the frostbitten heart of Chicago, a scarred and solitary soldier finds a second chance at love with the man who broke his heart.
Twenty years at war have left Sergeant Jasper âJazzâ Brookes battered, scarred, and haunted. His marriage is wrecked, his daughter barely speaks to him, and the world he fought for has moved on without him. Homeless by choice, Jazz manages until the brutal Chicago winter forces him to seek help from a shelter he doesnât want to need.
The weathered building in Humboldt Park offers veterans a place to rebuild, but Jazz doesnât expect to find Alex Richardson thereâhis first love, the boy who chose money over him, the one he left behind. Seeing Alex again cracks open old wounds and stirs feelings Jazz buried long ago.
For Alex, the sight of Jazz reminds him of everything heâs tried to forget. But neither man has moved on. As they grapple with their past and confront the scars theyâve carried for years, theyâre forced to decide if the connection between them is strong enough to survive the pain.
This time, itâs all or nothing.
