Master of Solitude by Cherise Sinclair

4.0

Ex-Navy SEAL Sawyer Ware has had a rough few years. After leaving the military, he suffered from severe PTSD. He went to prison for driving drunk in an accident that killed his (even more drunk) friend. And he survived being attacked defending his (female) psychologist from escaping prisoners, only to face prejudice against ex-cons upon his release. Contractor Mallory McCabe has never been particularly feminine, but being around Sawyer makes her feel things she's never felt before. But his walls and resistance are challenging to break through.

Sawyer Ware, introduced in Master of Freedom is a complex and interesting character. He's made serious mistakes and now is facing the consequences -- some deserved, some not. Mallory McCabe is usually seen as "one of the guys," but her relationship with Sawyer opens her up to new ideas and challenges. Their relationship is really great, especially given all the obstacles they have to overcome.
