Abandoned by Lyz Kelley

Her mother’s death. His PTSD. A combustible relationship.

Ashley Bryant has less than five weeks left to organize, sell, and pack away her old life before she’s uprooted and forced into a completely new one. She needs to make several critical decisions and with her life upended and spiraling out of control, the last thing Ashley needs is a sexy U.S. Marine complicating matters.

Gunnery Sergeant Chase Daniel’s has just buried his best friend, and his commanding officer has given him a month to commit—retire or return to active duty. Struggling with PTSD, fatigue, and grief, he stumbles into Elkridge, the quiet little mountain town, to figure out his future.

With their lives in upheaval, Ashley and Chase have a lot in common, but the last thing each needs are more complications—like their instant attraction to each other.
