It’s not long before their new family is put to the test, and the places they think are safe and people they begin to trust betray them. After Emry is abducted by an old enemy, the men work together for the woman they both love, making a connection even the bond couldn’t create. There’s happiness for the three of them with a future they didn’t expect but can’t deny. But they need to find her first.
