A bond this strong canâ (TM)t stay broken.
Life near the army base at Fort Benning, Georgia, might be small, but itâ (TM)s safe. That suits Karina Fischer just fine. She knows letting anyone get close to her means she could get hurt, and sheâ (TM)s had enough of that in her almost twenty-one years to last a lifetime. The only man sheâ (TM)s ever let in, Kael Martin, betrayed her trust before they could find their way together. She canâ (TM)t forgive him for what heâ (TM)s done, but letting go still feels impossible.
Kael Martinâ (TM)s scars run deep, but the mark Karina left on him is deeper. He canâ (TM)t get her out of his mind or his heart. Heâ (TM)s ready to start fresh, adjust to civilian life, and build a future outside of the Armyâ "one he hopes could include Karina, because their spark, while it burned, was unforgettable.
Now, just when it seems their world is crumbling and canâ (TM)t be put back together, circumstances force them to confront what they canâ (TM)t deny: the volatile, passionate, all-consuming love they canâ (TM)t live without.
Karina and Kael's unlikely love story, which began in THE FALLING, grows deeper and even more intense in THE BURNING, the second book in the Brightest Stars trilogy.
