In war and love, all men have secrets.

Javohir lost everything in the war. His mother died in its beginning, and right before the dragons forced a treaty between the dwarves and the humans who sought to take the wealth of their mountains, Javohir watched his brother die by a sadistic sorcerer.

Struggling in the aftermath, love is the last thing he wants. Especially to fall in love with a druid, one of the few types of magic users to stay neutral during the war.

But he hadn't prepared for Eoghan.

Eoghan avoided people. A brand on his spine from an ex-lover and a path of dead bodies by that same man's hand told him the exact cost of his freedom, but if he must be alone, Eoghan will do the best he can with what he have - working hard to heal the forests and fields most hurt by the war.

He couldn't afford love. Whoever grew close always ended up dead, so when he saw the handsome, gruff dwarf making the first merchant trek from the mountain since the war began, Eoghan intended to stay as far away as possible. A den of newborn wolf pups forced his hand, and touch-starved, Eoghan fumbled into a friendship too good to be true.

When the knots of their past turn out to be more entwined than either could have predicted, will these two wounded men find true love? Or will their secrets tear them apart?
