The Way Back Home

More about the book

Ex-Marine Gabe Ryder has lost a lot in his life. His mother died when he was a toddler. His father succumbed to alcoholism. And a week before their last day of service, a horrific firefight takes the life of his best friend and brother-in-arms, Rob Hayden. Now Gabe must fulfill his friend's dying wish by helping Rob's twin sister, Alicia. Alicia has been reeling since her brother's death. She's lost a part of herself that she isn't sure she can get back. On top of that, her eight-year-old son is longing for a father. She thinks she's found the man for the job: her boyfriend Keith. Then Gabe shows up. Much to her dismay, he moves into Rob's house, helps with the family rafting business, and pries into Alicia's love life.
