Publisher's Synopsis
"There's not much left to lose," Francesca De Angeleo whispered to herself as she watches her world burn down around her. Her gaze shifted to her two frightened daughters huddled together and knew, as long as those two girls drew breath she could fight on. She had to. Her daughters needed her to keep her shit together if their family had any chance of surviving.
When a California wildfire ravages her world, Francesca tries to make the best of things, but being a female contractor in a man's world wasn't going to be easy.
A jealous competitor on top of it all didn't just make the situation harder, it made it deadly.
Enter Laird 'The Scots' Hamilton. A domineering Scotsman who has an uncontrollable desire to protect Francesca and her small wounded family. When Laird is asked to help find out who is trying to ruin Francesca he discovers more than he bargained for.
Laird isn't your typical hero. Bad boy through and through. Some of the things he does leave Francesca unsure of his intentions.
Is he the hero she needs? Or is he another problem she will be forced to deal with?
At least she could always count on her sisters for backup. Her wine tribe. They never failed her, or her family. Through everything, they'd stood strong with her. Even when Francesca had nothing to offer back, they never faltered.
