Military Hero Shane Adler from Decoy Training

I love writing stories about military heroes because I love to see them get their happily-ever-afters. The hero in Decoy Training, Shane Adler, is a Marine who was wounded in Afghanistan and is forced to leave the military due to his injuries. Trying to rebuild his life, Shane heads off to visit a friend with Decoy, a dog Shane had befriended overseas and who saved his life when Shane was trapped beneath the rubble of a building destroyed by an IED. Shane’s visit to his friend inspires Shane to consider a new life as part of a K-9 rescue group, but to do that, Shane has to train Decoy. That’s where Piper Lambert comes into the picture. Piper is a highly regarded dog trainer whose Army husband was killed in battle. She’s not looking for love and involvement, but Shane is just too hard to resist. This is how I picture Shane after he finds his happily-ever-after with Piper, Piper’s pup Chipper, and Decoy!
