The murder makes no sense. The address found at the scene does.

​

Rowan has spent years waiting for her freedom. In less than a week, she is scheduled to give testimony that could finally sever the ties between her and the dangerous man she once married. The last thing she needs is a determined police lieutenant showing up at her door, questioning her plans and insisting she may be in danger.

 

Vince knows Rowan is hiding something. Rowan knows telling him the truth could put everything she has worked for at risk. Neither expects the attraction between them—or how quickly Vince’s determination to protect her will become something far more personal.

 

But the deeper Vince digs, the less anything is what it first appeared to be. There isn’t one dangerous man in Rowan’s past. There are two. And only one of them wants her back.

 

To survive, Rowan will have to trust Vince with the secrets she has guarded for years. And Vince will have to protect a woman he’s already far too close to losing.

 

Two killers. One woman caught between them. And a love neither saw coming.
