She was running for her life.
Fleeing an abusive ex, Daphne finds unexpected refuge in a quaint little town in the mountains of Western North Carolina. She finds herself under the protection of Eamon—the cold, ruthless head of the Irish Mafia and, inconveniently, her brother’s best friend.
Eamon has spent his life protecting his town and the people in it. He’s calculating, dangerous, and used to getting what he wants. When he discovers his best friend’s little sister has landed in his town, he makes one thing clear: Daphne is his.
But Daphne has learned the hard way that trusting the wrong man can cost her everything.
When her past comes crashing into her new life, Eamon will stop at nothing to keep her safe.
