Quinton had been a patient at Hathaway House in its first year. When she finally healed enough to move on with her life, she went into law and plowed forward. However, plowing forward may not have been the best answer for her physical injuries. While visiting Stan at the center, she collapses on her way to her brother's room, as he's a patient here now.

Between her brother—who's not getting along at the center—and Quinton's own struggles to get back on her feet, thankfully...

Tanner Kosta is the newest member of the team. Active in sports, particularly aerial types, he's training with a new military harness used in paragliding. The design was developed by Wynn Rider and her brother. As they run two SEAL teams through rigid training, Wynn's glider fails mid-flight, sending her plummeting toward the ground. Only Tanner's quick thinking saves her life—though it doesn't save her from losing her job.

Separating her gratitude from the growing attraction is nearly impossible. Tanner has heard the old adage that saving a life makes you responsible for it. Having admired Wynn's career when she was a professional paraglider, he's more than a little interested in keeping a close eye on the fascinating lovely who almost literally fell in his lap. When Wynn realizes her...

Haunted by a painful and unimaginable past, Bojan sought refuge in his work to keep the memories—and Lacy—at bay. But, when she raises the alarm over Bullard's family, Bojan is forced to step into the fray. Bullard is particularly wary of these "special" skills, except for those of Terk's team. Plus ignoring the offer of these skills can be dangerous—especially when a threat involves his family. Lacy is helping the heavily pregnant Leia in the medical clinic, yet can't ignore the danger she sees. But triggering an alarm requires Terk's special brand of help, who then tags Bojan to step up and to handle it. Lacy had no idea Bojan would return to her in the near future. Maybe in some distant future? So finding him in the kitchen one morning is unexpected. Still, now is the time for assistance. She just doesn't know what help Bojan can offer. Or is prepared to offer ... Particularly as things go from bad to worse.
