About Bane:
A fire burns.
It consumes.
It’s uncontrollable.
It’s irrational.
Rage can become just like a fire, clearing all in its path, killing anything that gets in its way. That’s what happens to a man when the woman he desires is put in harm’s way.
He doesn’t care what happens to him. He protects what is his. He doesn’t apologize for what he has to do. He strikes without hesitation.
He is Bane … and he will protect her.
I was done. Finished. Out.
For the past seven years, I belonged to a division of the government that wasn’t on the books. I operated alone. There was a mission: I either failed or succeeded. If I failed, that meant I was dead.
After all the shit I’d seen, done, caused—I survived. It was a fucking miracle.
I was the best at what I did, but there were times I saw my life flash before my eyes. But when you’re the government’s covert assassin, what else was there to expect. If I was captured, I didn’t exist. If I died, I didn’t exist. If I succeeded, I was assigned my next mission.
The plane wheels screeched as I touched down in Alaska.
Finally, I was where I wanted to be.
At times, I wasn’t sure I knew who I was anymore. My identity was erased from the system long ago. For the last three months, I’d been working on getting released from the program. It was a slow process with how deep I was in with Black Division.
Those suits knew I wouldn’t share anything I’d done. Hell, half the time I wanted to forget. After three months of debriefing, the government let me out. Of course, there was an underlying threat.
If we so much as suspect you’ve betrayed this country, consider yourself dead, Mr. Bradley. Yeah, nothing else was new. I wasn’t an idiot. I knew I’d be monitored for years to come, but they wouldn’t find anything.

Sonja's Review
Bane gave me the feels from the moment I started reading it, granted the first ones were confusion that turned into frustration, but then I felt like I was punched in the gut and my heart was being squeezed. I didn't want to tear myself away after that and I felt that all the way through. Bane turned out to be way better than I thought it was going to be and I completely fell in love with it!!
I really liked the heroine! She's strong, light, and giving. It's true that her giving, sort of innocent/naive nature does kind of land her in trouble, but she's definitely not weak or whiny and she didn't drive me crazy. In fact, I loved all that about her, she made not only me, but Bane, laugh and smile. She's the perfect heroine for Bane - she's just amazing!
Even though I loved the heroine, it was Bane who stole the show for me. From the very beginning, he broke my heart with how sweet he was and then my heart broke for him because of his pain. Bane is one of my favorite kinds of heroes - the broken-beautiful-tortured-soul kind. I fell for him fast and wanted to see him find happiness and love. I can't possibly tell you everything about him, but I can say that he's protective, loyal, caring, and fierce. Bane is a total bada*s, good guy and I know he'll make you fall for him!
Bane is a beautiful, heartbreaking read full of passion, mystery, and betrayal. It sucked me in, excited me, brought tears to my eyes, and warmed me. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it and I can't wait to read more Kristin Mayer!
Bane is a standalone, it's told from the H/h's POV, and they get a wonderful HEA!
