Brave

Twelve years ago, Devon Hayes lost everything because of three things: A hit-and-run. A lie. And a father who handed him over to the police to protect his own son. Now, after more than a decade behind bars, Devon walks free; older, harder, and carrying the kind of silence only prison can carve into a man. All he wants is to disappear into the quiet rhythm of a mechanic’s shop on the edge of Ridgefield, the town that destroyed his life. But fate has other plans. When his friend from prison suddenly got him a better paying job at a vineyard, he met a man who picked an interest in him because he looked like his late son. And to butter him up for the wrong hand he was dealt in the past, he found out they were related. His late mother was the estranged daughter of the man. Now, he had a new name, and a new fate, and now, he could get his revenge.

"That's a check for one million dollars. Take it and leave. Perhaps reunite with your mistress and live a lavish life." With red-rimmed eyes, Caroline slammed the check against August's chest. For over three years, she had been married to a cripple, yet all he did was bring her pain. He refused to tell her where he disappeared every month or explain the missing money. Perhaps the rumors were true. August looked at his devastated wife but couldn't bring himself to tell her the truth, not yet. For her safety, she had to remain in the dark. Three years ago, after fighting a brutal war, he was ambushed in a weakened state, leaving him crippled and deemed useless. But August refused to accept a fate bound to a wheelchair. As Caroline stormed away, his Qi surged and for the first time in years, he stood on his own. Now, not only would he make his enemies kneel, but he would also protect his wife from the very family that sought to strip her of everything she owned.
