On her own, she keeps her little bakery going. Fueled by visits from a tall, gorgeous ex-special forces general, she longs to understand more about the quiet, mysterious man who keeps secrets and teases her with hot glances. He keeps his team of ex-military security experts working to protect their town as the world comes to terms with the natural disaster that rocked their lives. Alexander “The General” Graham never thought he’d fall hard for the Plain Jane woman who runs a bakery, but the coziness she creates draws him in, makes him long for an honesty he’s never experienced with any woman. She makes him want to be a better man and seek the redemption he longs for. With danger lurking around the corner, Alexander and Patty will need their strength to keep them both alive. Dedication To Marie D. Jones, who inspired me to write about supervolcanoes, and to my husband, Terry, who inspires me to reach for the stars every single day. Acknowledgements Author Note: I highly recommend reading Ashfall, Darkfall and Winterfall before this story to understand some of the background on the Long Valley Super Volcano eruptions and the results of that disaster immediately and long term.
