Patrick 'Saint' Humphreys is struggling with the idea of the young woman before him being, well, a woman and not a child. He's known her since she was just a child, and his morality was keeping him from pursuing a relationship with her. Seeing her as a grown woman, prepared to leave the safety of Belle Fleur changes his mind. That and the fact they now have more than a dozen new people on the property who are directly tied to Marilisa and the other geniuses. Someone is chasing them, determined to harness their gifts at all costs. Dead or Alive. Saint can't run from Marilisa. Now when he knows that she's in danger, he must not only confess his love and hold her tightly but also ensure her safety.
Marilisa has been an oddity for nearly her entire life. When the stranger with the incredible speed not only saves her, but speaks to her in her head, she must face the fact that her gifts are more than just genius. She's also about to face something else that she never thought possible. Her origins. In her mind, convincing Saint to give them a chance at love was going to be the most difficult thing in her life. It turns out, that was the easiest.
