Her boutique is failing. Her heart is breaking. And the man she's loved for years is finally noticing her just as danger closes in.
Harper Walsh has been secretly in love with Connor Whitaker for six years. Six years of being "just friends." Now her life is crumbling—bills piling up, eviction notices stacking, her apartment burned to ash.
Then two dangerous men make her an offer she can't refuse: sign over her boutique property or lose everything. With nowhere else to turn, Harper moves into Connor's ranch. Temporarily.
Except Connor isn't treating her like a friend anymore. He's protective, possessive, and looking at her like she's always belonged there. But someone from his past isn't ready to let go. And when Harper discovers the threats against her run deeper than she imagined, she realizes she's caught in a web of obsession and criminal conspiracy.
As danger escalates, Harper must choose: surrender everything to keep Connor safe, or fight back and risk losing the man she loves—and so much more.
Because some deceptions run deeper than love. And some shadows hide monsters.
Book 2 in the When Shadows Break series. Each book is a complete romance with HEA and no cliffhanger, but the series is best enjoyed in order. Friends to lovers. Protector hero. Small-town suspense. Contains mature themes including violence and kidnapping. Reader discretion advised.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
