Uncovering Truths (Pelican Bay Book 5)

Lincoln's presence in Pelican Bay was simply to fulfill his job duties, until the arrival of someone changed everything. Former soldier turned nurse practitioner, Lincoln Arden, had approached Pelican Bay with the intention of it being just another location on his career path. He was hired to assist an elderly man with his physical rehabilitation, a patient whose body was succumbing to the effects of time. It was a job like any other, a temporary commitment that allowed Lincoln to complete his tasks and move on. He was always moving from one place to another as part of his lifestyle.

However, this particular live-in job proved to be unlike any other. The group of men he encountered had formed an unconventional family, with their own unique dynamics. The charming old farmhouse, situated in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by vast acres of stunning natural beauty, etched a lasting impression on Lincoln. The scenery served as a reminder of the beauty of life, a stark contrast to the death he had witnessed throughout his military career.

Despite the warm and welcoming nature of the family, Lincoln remained on the periphery, aware that his time there was temporary. He ensured that he did not forget his purpose, and that he would eventually move on.

The arrival of Theo Lancaster, on the other hand, was a less desired return to Pelican Bay. Theo had grown up in a neighboring town, and the prospect of revisiting his former best friend's hometown in northern Minnesota was met with reluctance. This small and picturesque town served as the very gateway to the past, a reminder of the moment that had forever altered his life.

Although he despised the idea, circumstances left him with no choice but to return. Homeless, without a support system, and lacking financial stability, he had limited options. However, his past experiences had moulded him into a person he never imagined becoming - a man adept at hiding his true self behind a facade. Wearing a metaphorical mask and skilled in deceiving others, he concealed his physical and emotional scars effortlessly. Effortlessly, he proclaimed his well-being and perfected a fake smile that shielded his true emotions. With practiced ease, he concealed the truth about his identity and what had befallen him after that life-altering incident.

His plan was simple: spend a few days hiding out, devise a future course of action, and vanish before anyone discovered who he truly was. However, amidst these plans, he had not anticipated encountering a remarkable nurse. This nurse saw through his lies effortlessly, recognizing that Theo was far from being alright. This nurse was determined to help heal both the physical and internal scars that plagued Theo, someone who shared the same goal of escaping a life on the run.
