Twenty years in Delta Force. One question worth more than the stripe.
When the Army finally offers Grant Caldwell its highest enlisted rank, he turns it down flat. The promotion splits him from Jamie Pike, and after two decades of war, luck, and each other, that price stopped being payable a long time ago.
So they retire. They ride north, to the mountains Grant came from. And on one gravel overlook above the Hudson Valley, twenty years of never-said finally gets said, though not remotely on schedule.
A courthouse. A judge who doesn't make speeches. A ninety-year-old witness who's been waiting twenty years to wear the gray dress. Three days on a mountain, two rings on chains, one blue truck standing honor guard. And the open road after, pointed at everything they never got to want out loud.
True North is a prequel novella in the Caldwell & Pike wolf-shifter series: the retirement, the road north, and the courthouse wedding. No spoilers for Danger Close; read it before or after Book 1.
Established couple, wolf shifters, explicit heat, guaranteed HEA
Genre: Paranormal Romance
