Elijah Roe has been through h*ll.
She changes everything..
Shelby. and it changes everything for Eli.
But then that gorgeous redhead does something really stupid...
Things are fine just as they are.
Not even if Commander Linfield orders Eli to go.
And he definitely isn\'t going to California.
Not gonna go there.
The persistent headaches? The sickening twist in his gut when he smells something burning? Nope.
So the nights he wakes up soaked in sweat? He ignores them.
Innocent.
Because something inside of him knows he\'s better off as he is now.
All he wants to do is get this sassy smart redheaded chick to notice him, and maybe tease his sister about when she\'s going to make him an uncle.
He doesn\'t want to know why he\'s covered in secret code tattoos, and he doesn\'t want to remember the truth of his past.
For the first time in his entire life, Eli is truly free.
He woke up fresh as a baby, with no awful memories to weigh him down. up until the moment his eyes rolled back in his head and all the memories in his brain were erased.
And Cass was everything to him...
He did things no ordinary man could live with, and he did them to protect his family, he did them to survive.
He fought for every second of peace and every second of happiness he ever had, then he turned right around and gave it all to his little sister.
But Eli was nothing if not a fighter.
And then things only got worse.
He\'s walked in fire his entire life, from the moment his drugged up mom had him, to the moment the war began.
