Getting Lucky

By: Kazimer, J. A.

They call Owen a hero.

He calls himself a failure.

After nearly dying in a mass shooting that stole his career and left him scarred in more ways than one, former detective Owen Blackwood has shut himself off from the world. Haunted by "what ifs" and his own guilt, he spends his days in forced solitude, locked in a battle between healing and regret. But when his former partner asks him to check on his sister, Sammie, after a break-in at her apartment, Owen reluctantly agrees. It's a simple favor-until he meets Sammie.

Bold, unapologetic, and a bit of a mystery, Sammie McDonald is nothing like the broken, embittered detective Owen expected. Her wild pink hair, a wicked smile and a mutt named Lucky draw him in, and with each moment he spends around her and her dog, he feels his defenses crumbling. But Sammie has secrets of her own, and as Owen's protective instincts kick in, he realizes she may be in more danger than she lets on.

Caught between their dark pasts and an undeniable connection, Owen and Sammie find themselves drawn to each other in ways neither planned-or wanted. For Owen, it's a chance at redemption, to protect instead of destroy. And for Sammie, it's a chance to be truly seen. But can love really heal the broken pieces of their lives, or will the shadows tear them apart before they have a chance to begin?
