Kade Kapono has always been a quiet man, though that had once been out of necessity more than preference. His slight stutter made him a target for bullies when he was young, but now, his sheer size and quiet demeanor are enough to intimidate most people. As a Marine, he’d learned that silence could be one of his greatest assets. However, he’s never regretted not being able to say all the words that are in his heart more than when he is with the one woman who matters most.

Giselle Doyle is his best friend’s little sister, and Kade knows he shouldn’t cross that line. She deserves someone younger and less cynical, but none of that matters when it comes to true love.

She belongs to him, and it’s time to make sure everyone knows it.
