“Eli Jackson was an honest man, but Cal had watched him lie to his father’s face without a twinge of shame. He was a gentle man, but Cal had seen just how dark his rage could take him. He’d had to pull Eli off Tucker Grace before he killed him in revenge. Eli was a hard, stubborn man, but he had the most tender need to care for others that Cal had ever witnessed. He was both calm and fury, sunshine and storm, and Cal had once been willing to sell his soul to learn his secrets.”
