Faith. She'd managed to keep her namesake while in captivity, but now that she was free? The daunting task of rejoining society was in front of her and it seemed that Marlin had too keep it for her.Marlin can't help how he feels about Faith, she was remarkably easy to like.

Neither one of them knew if she would make it out of the darkness in tact; only time would tell about that.During trying times, all you can do is hold on and have a little faith...
Charity is home free: her degree under her belt and making a beeline, straight for sunny Ft. Royal, and her sisters, Hope and Faith. Excited to see them, yet having been warned by Hope to watch herself when it came to the disarmingly charming ways of The Kraken, Charity never expected to walk right into the one man to flip all of her switches to the 'on' position before she'd even taken a dozen steps into town.Nothing was everything she liked. Tall, handsome, with a pair of eyes that any woman should swoon over. Just the right mix of tortured bad boy to pique all of her healer's instincts. Charity knew that the men of The Kraken played for keeps; all except, it seemed, for this one. Too bad no one told The Kraken that she played for keeps, too.
Rush had always been the brother that was the most up for adventure. Then Grinder died and he realized that it was time to slow down. Fast-forward by a year and more and his older brother Archer had found Mel. Hell, his own twin was with a woman of his own Rush is starting to get restless again, which was just perfect.

One, she wasn't some paper princess, and two, she definitely didn't want him around. After all, one-night hook-ups were supposed to be just that... one and done.

Alyssa isn't completely honest when she answers the ad for a roommate online. True, she needs a place to live, true she's getting a divorce, true; he's a cheating jerk. There's just a little bit more to it than that. So when the ad comes across her screen Indigo City beat cop looking to rent out a fully furnished room... she jumps on it, because what could be safer than living with a cop?Golden isn't too keen on living with a chick, but after posting online looking for a roommate, he's found the pickings are slim. The softly spoken brunette doesn't seem like she's much trouble, plus she's got the cash up front, so what the hell? She'll just have to get over his bringing home badge bunnies from the 10-13. He's got a stressful job, and the best way to blow off steam, in his estimation, is hot sex.

This is either going to be a really good or a really bad idea.

When Mace was at his worst, low-sided by some punks in a bar, Raven was there. She was there for him while he healed and it was only natural that Mace should find himself in his feelings over her. What wasn't there to like? She was sweet, kind, sexy, and cool with her burner chick aesthetic, sharp wit, and generous soul. Raven so did not want to get involved with the Sacred Hearts MC. It so wasn't the way to stay off of local law enforcement's radar. She just seemed to keep finding herself in the wrong place at the wrong time and the flirty biker was hurt. Like, really hurt, and it went against every fiber of Raven's being to not give aid to those in need. Raven's sure that getting involved with Mace is going to be the worst mistake of her life, but then again... she's been wrong before.

These two coming together is going to be a lesson in trust, patience, and healing; like neither have had to learn before.

Justice has been through a lot and was just starting to feel safe again. This trip to Ft. Royal was supposed to be a fresh start to her new life; not a new kind of nightmare.
