Finnian's Rescue — Susan M. Baganz

When a wounded hero is trapped in a prison of his mind, can a lonely young woman free him?

After three years of captivity as a prisoner of war, Corporal Finnian Hunt is finally free. But life as he knew it is over. His father died during that time. His fiancée married someone else. Some suspect him of treason. Re-entry into the real world is more challenging than he imagined.

Piper Piccolo hasn't had much luck with love. She'd moved to this small Wisconsin town to be near her fiancé only to be ditched by him for a local girl -- his high school sweetheart. Now, she works at a beauty shop. With inertia weighing her down, she has no idea what her future holds.

Two unlikely people, both lonely and adrift, begin to cling to each other for comfort, companionship and strength. But, just when it seems as though they'll each get a second chance at happiness and a normal life, someone puts a bullseye on Finn's back.

Can he stay alive long enough to prove his innocence without losing his one chance at true love?
