Gabe O’Neil was a top Army Ranger until an explosion left him partially deaf. Medically discharged, he went home to Colorado, unsure of his next move. It took time, but he’s finally reconnected with the world, his old friends, and the larger hearing-impaired community through learning sign language. Gabe is still wary of being judged but that doesn’t stop him from regularly visiting Riversong Coffee House for a cup of joe -- and to admire the shy, pretty brunette who looks up from her book and smiles at him every time. When she offers to buy him coffee, he takes a chance and finds she’s as sweet as she is lovely. Soon, he realizes he’s falling hard and fast.
Rochelle Carlson loves reading in her favorite coffee shop when she isn’t translating books into English or French. Her life is words, words, words and that’s all she’s ever needed to protect herself from the world. Until she sees the handsome man who makes her heart pound every time he walks through the door. A cup of coffee leads first to embarrassment and then to a lesson in sign language-and she’s always up for learning new words. Gabe is patient with her where others have been unkind and she quickly warms up to this funny, caring, protective man. Rochelle never expected to fall in love, but she never expected to meet a real-life Book Boyfriend either. When a mysterious drive-by nearly ends Rochelle’s life, Gabe is wracked with uncertainty and guilt. Was she an innocent bystander or is there something deeper going on, something tied to Mountain Division defending an innocent girl? Can Gabe and the men of Mountain Division protect Rochelle before it’s too late?
