Forsaken (Breaking the Rules #3)

Arlo is the kind of man whose entire life has been planned out for him.

A military career.
A wife and kids.
And constant deference to his father.

But Arlo knows that’s not a future he can live up to. Accepting his walking papers, Arlo escapes to Fairfield, Colorado to avoid the pressures of his father’s political career and is determined to start over. He’s seen the worst the military can do, and he’s determined to do his part in helping… and maybe ignoring some quiet things in the back of his mind he’s never wanted to face.

Then, on a rainy night, everything changes with an emergency trip to the veterinarian’s office.

As a wounded vet, Elliot understands what it’s like to live a civilian life better than anyone. He also understands the pressing loneliness Arlo experiences. And it begins to spark feelings in Arlo he’s unprepared for, but Arlo isn’t sure he’s ready to accept the reality of his situation.

Arlo wants and Elliot is willing, but both men know that the path to a happily ever after will not be an easy one.


Forsaken is the third book in the Irons and Works spin-off trilogy: Breaking the Rules. It contains an exhausted veterinarian, fluffy bunnies, a harrowing animal rescue, kisses in the rain, and the sweetest happily ever after.
