description: My job is to save lives. But what if the one that needs saving is the one I was sent to take?At 33 years old Phoenix Jones once had a stellar military career ahead of him. But when tragedy struck his family he walked away from the path hed chosen to be there for the one who needed him most. Except fate is a bitch and when she once again takes Phoenixs future in the cruelest of ways he must find a new path.When a former army buddy introduces him to Ronan Grisham the leader of an underground vigilante group Phoenix knows hes found a new family and nothing and no one is going to take that from him again. So when Ronan asks him to shadow a young man who participated in a brutal crime against Ronans husband Seth when he was a child and appears to be targeting him again Phoenix doesnt even hesitate for a second.Even knowing what he must do if the young man proves to have gone back to his old ways.Because family is everythingI cant come back from what I did. Im not sure I even want toAn ugly childhood left Levi Deming with little to do but dream of a day when hed be free of his tormenters so he could carve out a simple life for himself preferably somewhere far away from the family who never let him forget he was less than human. But one terrible choice at the tender age of 16 changed everythingWracked with guilt for the role he played during a home invasion gone horribly wrong a now 24-year-old Levi is trying to piece together a life where he can maybe do a little bit of good even knowing it wont make up for the lives he helped take and it definitely wont give back the future he stole from the young man whose agonized screams still haunt him night after night. If it were only about him hed walk into the nearest police station and happily tell them to lock him up and throw away the key.But it isnt just about him anymoreI expected to find a hardened criminal. What I found was something else entirelyWith Ronans orders to terminate young Levi if he so much as even jaywalks Phoenix expects an easy job with one clear outcome. But when a violent encounter forces Phoenix to interact with Levi he quickly realizes the case might not be as black and white as he thought. Instead of finding a criminal with no conscience Phoenix discovers a young man battling impossible odds and near crippling guilt.When his feelings of disgust and anger begin to fade and turn into something else the would-be hitman is forced to make a terrible decision between the family he needs and the young man more intent on seeking judgement than redemption.
