Synopsis
Keeping her safe is crucial. Guarding his heart is impossible.Haunted by his time in Iraq, former soldier Schwartz Patton goes off the grid, retreating deep into Montana’s untamed wilderness. Now, ten years into his self-imposed solitude, his brother tracks him down and asks for a favor. A woman is in danger, and she needs help...and Schwartz is the only one who can protect her.
Designer-loving city girls like Janelle Keebler don't belong in the wilderness. Unless, of course, they're witnesses to a murder by their psycho drug-trafficking ex-husbands. Still, Janelle can't help the immediate physical response she has to her sexy-as-sin protector that leaves her wanting more than she could have ever imagined. Even if he does make terrible coffee...
Every word, every touch, every kiss ignites a need Schwartz thought he’d lost forever. He can't stop the desperate attraction simmering between him and Janelle, even if he wanted to. Even if it means it could get them both killed.
5-Stars Review
Another amazing read! I loved it. Its a light-hearted romantic story, also full of humour and intrigue. Schwartz and Janelle are a perfect couple. Both are opposite of each other. While Schwartz has been living alone for past ten years, away from civilisation, Janelle is kind of a person who needs human interaction. She cannot stay quite for long. She has a sunny personality which makes people comfortable around her. They both compliment each other in a perfect way.
Janelle needs protection, she witnessed a murder and now her ex-husband is after her. Schwartz brother requests that he keeps Janelle safe. There was no one else who could be trusted with the task. When she came to live with him, she was not expecting a cottage in wilderness. But she trusted him. He was kind of a man who knew what he was doing when it came to disappearing and staying safe. He was a competent protector, as far as she was concerned.
What they did not anticipated was falling in love. It was difficult to share a cottage and not feel attracted to each other, at first they try to ignore their attraction but not for long, the only trouble is the danger which surrounds them and past ghosts that might come to haunt....
