A few days later, Sean's car blows up in the garage of his office building, bringing Sean into the spotlight in a very unflattering way.Jericho Hess served his country until an accident brought about his medical discharge. The desire to serve his country doesn't disappear as he fights his personal demons, and when he gets a chance to be of service to someone who needs protection, he steps in at the urging of a few Lonely Heroes.Upon meeting Sean Fitzpatrick, Jericho is attracted to the man's no-nonsense approach to grabbing life by the balls and hanging on, devil be damned. Can Jericho, a real-life cowboy, ever adjust to the man's sometimes caustic attitude and keep the man alive, even though Jericho would like to strangle him on occasion?
