They may be refugees but Andie Sorenson never chose to flee when government forces abduct her to the "safety" of a military-operated compound. Caught in an ugly civil war no one understands, she's now a number, a uniform, her future reduced to three stale meals a day with the strangers who share her fate. She's nothing, no one-until a random act of compassion and an electric smile turn her prison into a refuge.

It's his eyes, his heart, his beautiful soul drowning in an ocean of secrets. Lance Corporal Kaleb Novelli is an enigma, but with each plunge through another layer, Andie finds herself captured in a way she never imagined. She knows they have no future. They can't even have a present, but that doesn't stop her heart from committing to a man she can never have. The only one she trusts in this battle of lies and manipulation.

But they've found their paradise in hell, and she can't shake the feeling that Kaleb Novelli is not just a player. He's the game.
