Rescued from Ourselves

Rescued from Ourselves

He was built on discipline.
She survived on empathy.
Neither expected a six-year-old boy to become the bridge between their broken worlds.

Captain Marcondes commands the Military Police Tactical Team with ruthless precision, a man carved by loss and trained to feel nothing. After the tragic death of his pregnant wife, he locked away every emotion that once made him human. Strength, silence, routine-until she walked into his fortress of steel.

Simone, the team's new therapist, is fearless, intelligent, and hiding a past she refuses to let anyone uncover. She knows trauma better than most. What she doesn't expect is that her toughest assignment won't be the squad-it will be the captain who refuses to be saved... and the secret she's terrified he'll discover.

But fate doesn't wait for the right moment.
And when a vulnerable little boy needs more than procedures and protocols, Simone and Marcondes are forced to confront the wounds that nearly destroyed them.

As danger rises and old ghosts return, the two must learn to surrender-
to trust,
to forgiveness,
to a love raw enough to break them open... and strong enough to rebuild them.
