Tru Blue

There is nothing Truman Gritt will not do to protect his family, including serving years in prison for a crime he did not commit. When he is finally released, the life he knew is upended by his mother's fatal overdose, and Truman steps in to raise the young children she has left behind.

He is hard, secretive, and stretched thin trying to save a brother even more broken than he is, and he has never in his life needed anyone's help. So when beautiful Gemma Wright tries to step in, he meets her with anything but gratitude.

But Gemma has a way of working herself into people's lives, and little by little she slips past his ironclad defenses to the wounded man underneath. As Truman builds something fragile and real with her and the children, his dark past refuses to stay buried.

When it finally collides with the future he is fighting for, his loyalties are tested, and he faces the toughest decision of his life in this raw, emotionally charged standalone.
