By: Jodi Ellen Malpas

Narrated by: Anya Winter, Jack George

In this "very satisfying mix of dizzying intrigue and steamy romance, " the #1 New York Times bestselling author delivers a novel that's "perfect for those who love a good alpha male and a damsel in distress who doesn't wait for someone else to rescue her" (Publishers Weekly).

Ryan Willis has spent years in the protection business, a job that requires constant vigilance and quick thinking. His only chance to truly relax is at his secluded cabin in a small town where there are never any surprises. So when Ryan returns after an assignment and encounters a beautiful stranger, he isn't only surprised, he's also instantly intrigued.
Hannah Bright is a breath of fresh air, and Ryan is soon completely consumed, unable to stop from falling for her. As the two grow closer, his instinct tells him something is amiss. Yet nothing could prepare him for what he discovers when he starts digging into her past.

Hannah spends her days painting, running her arts and crafts store...and hiding too many secrets. It's why she won't let the ruggedly handsome bodyguard get too close. But their chemistry is undeniable, and Hannah quickly finds herself caught up in a whirlwind romance with Ryan. He is peace personified, a balm to her battered soul. Yet the gorgeous, captivating man who has swept Hannah off her feet doesn't even know who she really is. And the moment he finds out, both their lives are at risk

Not a bad read.

I’m honestly not really into romance novels. But the thriller aspect of this story appealed to me so I took a flyer on it. It wasn’t overly steamy and I appreciated that. The dueling narrators did a fantastic job and I finished this book pleased with my investment.

Wow!

This story was so perfect! I loved the his and her point of views throughout the whole books. It was great to fully know what they were both thinking in different chapters. I also like people that read it! They did a great job of making different tones for different people.
