Hard — Christi Snow

Lake has simple dreams, get her degree then move back home to help her dad run his microbrewery. Finding two best friends in her polar-opposite roommates is just a bonus. But she'll need every ounce of support she can get when her simple dreams start turning to ash.

Walsh is a man without a plan. Life handed him crappy parents and an even crappier future. Enlisting in the army is simply a ticket out of crap town. He never expected to join a group of men who would become his brothers. But when it all hits the fan, family could become a four-letter word.

Before the Meet Cute, first kiss, and HEA there were two people finding out that life can be really Hard.
