Native Tongue

They may be back on British soil, but the battle isn't over.

When Captain Hugh Wilkes fell for his Afghan interpreter, Rustam Balkhi, he always knew things would never be easy. After months of complete secrecy, their return to England should have spelt an end to the sneaking around and the insane risks. But it seems there are many obstacles for them to overcome before they can truly be happy together. Can they get past those obstacles, or is this one battle too many for their fledgling relationship?

Author's note: Although this story does work as a standalone tale, it's recommended that you read the first instalment of the characters' journey first—Desert Heat, which is available from all good retailers.
