Tragedy brought them together. Love will forge them like steel.

The last thing Benny expected was to find himself in the middle of an active shooter event on campus. Canyondale University isn't the type of place he imagined becoming the center of such brutality. After getting shot in the thigh, he would've been dead if not for the SWAT member who rushed to his aid at the moment one of the gunmen was bent on finishing the job.

An explosion of violence is a typical day for Wyatt. It's his job to charge headfirst into the worst situations. This time is different. Downed by several bullets and left for dead, he might not have made it out alive if not for an unlikely hero-a young college student named Benny. Now, Wyatt can't stay away from Benny. The man's dry wit and courageous heart has him mesmerized. Unfortunately, Wyatt's near-death experience has his ex seeing the light and wanting him back.

Relationships built under such stressful circumstances aren't known to last, especially when meddling exes are involved. Thankfully for Wyatt, Benny isn't easily budged, and he's not giving up his knight without a fight.
