The Asset by Anna Del Mar

A wounded Vet, Ash, with his faithful German Shepherd Neil in tow and on the verge of septic shock shows up at the doorstep of a gal, Lia, on the run from bad memories. To treat her new boarder she calls on the services of the Vet who treats the menagerie of abandoned critters she keeps out back. Throw in PTSD and Flashbacks and you have a fair picture. Oh, the Vet's on the lam because the Hospital wanted to amputate.

Ash's traumas are well defined but we are kept in the dark about the exact nature of Lia's issues. When they start coming out the novel takes a turn toward rather high-tech spy thriller and the sex scenes get rather torrid. I liked the first half better than the second.
