I needed a place no one would know me.
A fresh start.
Sanctuary.
And as far from everyone in my past as possible without leaving the country.
The island of Mercy Bay is my new beginning.
I'm a new mother with a colicky baby and no support system. Nights of screaming bring the surly neighbor to my door. Big, brooding, ex-hocky playing, infuriating and hot, Walker Wheler is the baby whisperer. He adores my daughter.
Me? Not so much.
I don't need another man to complicate my life, but I can't resist Walker. One night of explosive passion, I discover I'm not the only one with secrets.
When the twisted truth comes calling, I learn that no matter how far you run, the past will always find you in the end.
