Can someone constantly on the receiving end of betrayal learn to trust again?

Dietrich Omari Johnson trusts no one. Sold into slavery by his own people, he learns early what the sharp edge of betrayal feels like. Working for the Shadow Unit is out of forced necessity. Never one to do something for nothing, he plays both sides of the fence. Every move, every decision, is calculated for his own personal gain.

Jorunn McLellan, given into the care of the Unit’s meanest team member, tries to make the best of a frightening situation. The dominating Walker hides behind his shades, and harsh comments, yet still manages to heat up her body. Can she put to rest the emotions Dietrich awakens and move on with her life before he steals her soul and shatters her heart?

Or is the glimpse he allows her to see enough to fight for what she knows is his only chance for happiness?
