She doesn’t trust anyone. All he wants is someone who “gets” him.
Camilla
I’d rather be elbows deep defusing a bomb than all up in anyone’s feels, but civilian life is messy—and all I’ve got since one slip almost sent me home from my last tour in a body bag. Now I debug lines of code by day. And spend my nights with West, a retired SEAL.
It’s not what you think.
We’re online gaming buddies. Geeking out and trash talking to our hearts’ content. Until he wants to meet up. I’m weak enough to say yes, though there’s something he has to understand. I guard my heart. And I trust no one.
West
Six years after leaving the teams, the cold-sweat nightmares are only getting worse. But gaming with Cam, a fellow vet with an irreverent mouth and the uncanny ability to quiet my demons is a welcome distraction from the lack of sleep and the fact that the latest fitness fads are killing my Krav Maga studio.
She claims she doesn’t do relationships,
but one date with her and I’m on fire for more. When I’m forced to take
on a risky rescue mission to save my dojo, she retreats back behind her
keyboard—and her secrets. I’m willing to lay it all on the line to show
her broken can be beautiful. But she has to show me her raw edges—and
trust that my own are a perfect fit.
Breaking His Code is the first book in the Away From Keyboard series. All books in the series are complete standalones, but past characters always show up in future books.

It started out really strong. Both Cam and West were good main characters. But about short of 50% on my Kindle it started to stumble a bit for me. I think it had a lot to do with all the sex-texting and actual sex scenes. Although well done it ALMOST took over the story. But I liked Cam and West so much that I just kept going. They both had their own emotional things to deal with. And I liked how Cam's job and her relationships there entered into the mysteries of the programing problems.
So I ended up liking the book with some reservations. However I liked the ending. And the person behind the computer problems wasn't who I was suspecting. I always like it when the author surprises me like that.
So I also ended up wanting to know more about Royce (her boss, friend) and even Lucas another friend she worked with. How does their stories go?
