After five years of hell, MIA Army Lt. Mitchell Markum is coming home. Not totally in one piece, but close enough. Hesitant to look up his wife, he decides on calling the old friend for a place to go. After that many years, she's most likely moved on thinking him long gone.
His world turns upside down when he is informed by the Army his wife is still married to him. She has not declared him dead, having held on in hope he would someday come home. Armed with this news, he doesn't plan to disappoint her.
He is alive?! Alexi didn't intentionally wait in hope he would come back. She just wasn't ready to make that dreaded decision of declaring him dead. Every day the last five years, her heart has begged for him to come home.
Now they have the second chance they both have prayed and begged for. Unfortunately, someone is watching her, and that someone has laid claim to Alexi and will do anything to have her. The return of her husband from the dead, is a small problem, granted. It is also nothing that his dying for real won't fix.
Mitchell intends to win against the threat stalking his wife at any cost. When you survive hell, you will enter it again in the name of love.
