They trained him to be the ultimate weapon. But fate gave him something far more dangerous—his mate.

Tiger-shifter and immortal sniper Jonathon Reynell has spent decades on the front lines, serving his country as part of the elite Immortal Ops team. Missions, danger, and adrenaline are all he knows. But immortality has its price—watching everyone he loves die while he remains. Drowning in guilt and grief, Jon retreats to his Southern hometown, hoping to outrun the ghosts of his past.

What he doesn’t expect is her.

Tori Manzo is as fierce as she is beautiful, and when Jon meets her, the pull is instant, undeniable—and terrifying. She’s not just a gorgeous small-town artist with a haunted past; she’s his fated mate. But Tori comes with secrets of her own, including the ability to see the dead—and the target on her back from enemies who won’t stop until she’s silenced.

Jon is a master marksman, but this time the stakes are higher than ever. Because the only thing more dangerous than the enemy in his crosshairs… is losing his mate.

Can a broken soldier protect the one woman who holds his heart, or will the past—and his enemies—destroy them both?
