Rafe Cameron is 6’2 tall, athletic, muscular, and striking, with broad shoulders, sharp features, blue eyes, and a buzz cut His style is casual but put together—fitted t-shirts, jackets, jeans, and well-worn basics. Rafe is more mature and grounded than he used to be. He’s still intense, stubborn, impulsive, and protective, but he’s learned to control his temper and communicate instead of immediately lashing out. He’s more vulnerable, self-aware, and willing to admit when he’s wrong. With her, he’s especially soft. He’s affectionate, playful, protective, and openly loving. He laughs more, touches her often, and doesn’t hide how much she means to him. He can still be possessive and reckless when she’s threatened, but his biggest priority now is building a better life with her. After everything they’ve survived, Rafe is determined to leave his old life behind and start over with her in South Africa. She’s the person he refuses to leave behind.
