Now a physical therapist, she uses her experience to help other veterans heal from their physical wounds; while she battles her own emotional damage.<\/p>\n<p>Blaming himself for his best friend\u2019s suicide, former Army Ranger Jase Larken, retreated from life. To honor his best friend\u2019s memory and assuage his guilt, he started an outdoor adventure company to help veterans with PTSD.<\/p>\n<p>Bree had better things to do than catch her cheating fiance in bed with another woman. Jase is something better &#8211; for a night at least. For the first time in years, Jase wanted more. When he finds her again, he doesn\u2019t give her another chance to run.<\/p>\n<p>Jase\u2019s protectiveness grates on Bree\u2019s independent nature. She\u2019s dealt with her fair share of alpha-male, door kickers and doesn\u2019t need one telling her what to do now. But as a new danger emerges, Bree and Jase must face their pasts, before someone\u2019s obsession with Bree destroys any chance they have of a future.<\/p>\n<p>Can be read as a stand alone. No cliffhangers within the story.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/goodreads.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25373 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/goodreads.jpg?resize=300%2C100\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/goodreads.jpg?resize=300%2C100 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/goodreads.jpg?resize=768%2C256 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/goodreads.jpg?w=900 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/31426619-stitched-up-heart?ac=1&amp;from_search=true&amp;qid=jRXlwD12sy&amp;rank=1\">Goodreads<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/buylinks.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25375 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/buylinks.jpg?resize=300%2C100\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/buylinks.jpg?resize=300%2C100 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/buylinks.jpg?resize=768%2C256 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/buylinks.jpg?w=900 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ss&amp;ref=as_ss_li_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=twintalk-20&amp;language=en_US&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=B01JRC2AMW&amp;asins=B01JRC2AMW&amp;linkId=33919579fd99279d989d594ab34ad004&amp;show_border=true&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=true\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" sandbox=\"allow-popups allow-scripts allow-modals allow-forms allow-same-origin\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/melinda-e1649296389766.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-25381\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/melinda.jpg?resize=300%2C100\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Review by Twinsie Melinda<\/p>\n<p>I purchased this audio book.<\/p>\n<p>When your BFF reads a book and tells you that you have to read it because she knows you will like it. You do not ask questions you pick it up and listen to it.\u00a0 She was so right I did enjoy this one not only was it a good story but the narrator took it to another level.\u00a0 Hayden did a great job.<\/p>\n<p>Bree just had a crappy day. Found her fianc\u00e9 in bed with another woman so she decided to hit the bars with her BFF. I loved Denise and seeing her and Bree\u2019s friendship. Bree ran into Jase at the bar and decides to have a one-night fling. The next night she is out the door and never plans on seeing him again. \u00a0When Jase wakes up and she is gone ticked him off. He thought they had something. When the stars line up Bree is brought back to Jase and he is going to hang on to her and not let her run again.<\/p>\n<p>These two are amazing together. They both have their demons they are trying to forget but they keep working their way back. They each understand what the other is going through and knows what the other needs. I loved that Bree was just as tough as Jase. She is no weak female that needs Jase but strong enough to stand up to him.<\/p>\n<p>I enjoyed this story so much I have to say the narration set this one apart from other audio books. I am excited to read more of this series.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-25376 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=300%2C100\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=300%2C100 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?resize=768%2C256 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/abouttheauthor.jpg?w=900 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Tarina has spent her entire life in and around the military &#8211; first as a dependent and then as an enlisted Air Force member.<\/p>\n<p>She writes contemporary and military romance about strong women and the men strong enough to love them.
