Beneath his ScarsUpdated at Jun 6, 2026, 02:06
Dr. Fiona Kennigton-Harper has spent years rebuilding her life around two things: her career and her twelve-year-old son, TJ. As one of Canada's most respected trauma doctors, she has no time for complicated relationships and no interest in reopening old wounds.
Then Lieutenant Colonel Kieran Grey Ashford is admitted to her hospital.
A highly decorated British Army officer with an impressive military record, Grey arrives carrying injuries that run far deeper than the scars on his body. Reserved, disciplined, and burdened by a past he refuses to discuss, he quickly becomes Fiona's most challenging patient.
What begins as professional concern slowly evolves into something neither of them expects.
As Fiona uncovers fragments of Grey's painful history, she realizes the man behind the uniform is fighting battles no one else can see. At the same time, Grey finds himself drawn not only to Fiona's strength and compassion but also to the warmth of the small family she has built with TJ.
But healing is never simple.
Secrets from Grey's past threaten to resurface, old loyalties are tested, and the emotional walls both Fiona and Grey have spent years constructing begin to crack. As their connection deepens, they must decide whether they are willing to risk their hearts for a future neither believed they deserved.
Beneath His Scars is an emotional military romance about healing, trust, family, and finding love in the most unexpected place.
