Home for a Hero

the long version

Shelter Island's desolate coast is where Lucas Roman has come to battle the terrible trauma he's suffered in the war. Physically, he's almost as good as new, but the emotional toll of guarding a buddy's secret -- and being branded a traitor because of it -- is something he's kept to himself. So when a freak storm washes Shay Donovan up on the reclusive millionaire's beach, his first thought is to bundle the bedraggled marine biologist back to town. But with the roads rained out and nowhere to hide, he starts to think that maybe the woman with the amber-flecked eyes is an angel of mercy -- not the enemy.
