A Soldier's Oath

Jett has lived his life in the shadows, dedicating himself fully to the military and its covert missions. With no time for attachments or distractions, his team has become his only family. But when Bryce Holmes, one of his closest brothers-in-arms, doesn’t make it back from a mission, Jett and his remaining teammates are given their most personal and emotional task yet: fulfilling Bryce’s final wishes.

The mission takes Jett to Bryce’s hometown, where he comes face-to-face with Clementine Holmes—Bryce’s spirited, red-haired younger sister. Clementine is struggling to find joy in the first Christmas without her brother, despite her best efforts to honor his memory. When Jett shows up at her door, bringing news of Bryce and an undeniable spark of attraction, Clementine’s carefully planned future is thrown into chaos.

Jett is everything Clementine’s ten-year plan does not include: tattooed, gruff, and emotionally guarded. But as they navigate grief, memories, and the holiday season together, Clementine begins to suspect her brother might have orchestrated something far more lasting than his final wishes.
