Secured (The Shielded #3)

Book Three

Special Ops soldier Deo Lazitter has spent a year with the enemy in a cell no bigger than a shower stall. Surviving on what little food was tossed down to him once a day, he wonders if he’ll ever get his former strength back. Thanks to his sister, Darina, and his best friend, Ghared, he now has the opportunity to try, but does he no longer know how to live on the outside?

Genetically engineered therapist Dr. Linsey Cadmen is happy to finally be a true citizen. Most of her life has been spent hiding in the shadows, but everything is different now. She’s free. No one wishes to dismantle her because of her genetic flaws. She has the same rights as natural-born humans in a world that is slowly getting back on its feet after a global unplug and a widespread plague. But will she ever stop looking over her shoulder, waiting to be caught?

When Deo shows up in her office needing her counsel, Linsey finds herself wanting to be caught in a whole different sense of the word. Can she heal his wounds? Can he accept her for what she is? Can they make each other feel secure enough to risk their hearts?
