Everything is right in Deacon's world, but nothing ever stays the same. Earnest, brave, and self-deprecating, Shane seems to speak Mikhail's language, and no one is more surprised than Mikhail to find that keeping promises is Shane's best talent of all.Ĭrick has been home from Iraq for five years, Jeff and Collin are finally married, and Shane and Mikhail are quietly making lives better for the dispossessed teenagers who come their way. Making promises to anybody else is completely out of the question-but then, Mikhail has never met anybody like Shane. Since he left Russia, he's made only two promises: to stay off the streets and stay clean, and to take his mother someplace beautiful before she dies. Mikhail Vasilyovitch Bayul dances like an angel, but his past is less than heavenly. Kimmy makes her living as a dancer, and her partner steals Shane's breath at first sight. He ends up an officer in the small town of Levee Oaks, and, addicted to the promise of family, he makes an effort to reconcile with his flighty, troubled sister. But after a career-shattering decision to go down fighting, Shane comes home from the hospital to four empty walls, a pile of money, and a burning desire for someone to miss him the next time he gets hurt in the line of duty. All Shane Perkins ever wanted to be was a hero.
