She's fighting for the security she's found. He's figuring out how to live again. Can two wounded souls be healed by helping each other? After a lifetime in the army, Arthur 'Sherlock' Hammond has been cast adrift. Struggling to cope after being medically discharged, his friends drag him to Retribution Bay to face life, and a sister he's not seen for a decade. Gretchen Wintie has finally found a secure job, friends she can count on and with the end of her university degree in sight, life is looking up for her and her son. Until her low-life ex walks back into her life demanding she choose between the happiness she's found, and the safety of her child. Adding to her stress is the bitter, injured ex-soldier she's forced to work with, and who thinks a smile is a major crime. But when her ex's threats escalate, Gretchen discovers a sweet man underneath Arthur's prickly exterior. He might just be the solution to all of her problems, as long as she doesn't lose her heart to him. When things get stormy, will their dark secrets be revealed, or will it prove their foundations are strong? Adrift in Retribution Bay is the sixth book in the Aussie Heroes: Retribution Bay series.
