A Love Means... Story Years after his discharge from the Marines under "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," Cody Culver lives in a PTSD-induced world all his own. On a mission, under misconceptions that Geoff and Eli are the enemy, Cody breaks into their farmhouse but is quickly brought back to his senses by a frying pan to the head. After receiving much needed help in the hospital, Cody has nowhere to go. Luckily, kindhearted Eli knows just where to turn. When Eli asks former Marine Brick Hunter to help, Brick isn't sure he wants to get involved. But Brick has worked through his own PTSD, and like it or not, he owes Eli a favor. With Cody struggling to rejoin the real world and Brick agreeing to take him in, they discover they have more in common than either of them thought possible. Though Cody tries to stay in the here and now, he sometimes flashes to unexplainable traumatic events-events that don't fit his usual war zone delusions. As the "delusions" grow more frequent, it becomes apparent they might not be delusions at all. Cody may have actually witnessed a murder. | Love Means Patience by Andrew Grey, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
