Understanding

A wounded veteran. A broken shoe. A chance for love.

Colleen Flynn was unlucky in love, and shoes. So when her heel broke on the way into the office, of course she had a fight with the handsome stranger who held the door for her. Now, she's being paired with him- Matthew Armistead, military veteran and project lead on her company's new contract, a man she can barely stand to be around...a man she's highly attracted to. As he opens up and reveals his traumatic past- combat injuries, the loss of his best friend- she finds herself falling for him and suspects he feels the same way...but he can't bring himself to take the hand she's offered. What will it take to get through to him? How can she make him understand that he has a lot to offer...and she has much to give?
