Faron (The Golden Team #8)

He thought his battles were behind him—until she became the one he couldn’t walk away from.

Faron Lightfoot has spent his life in the shadows—first as a tracker, then as a Guardian. Quiet, lethal, and fiercely loyal, he thought he’d left his most dangerous missions behind. But nothing prepared him for Blue.

She’s his mission now.

And failure isn’t an option.
