Francesca Roscoe had no intention of staying in Willow Grove. But after her younger brotherβs tragic death, she returned home and never left. Now, despite having a nursing career she adores, Frankie is alone and convinced that a canβt-live-without-each-other love doesnβt exist.
Until a strangerβs quiet charm draws her in.
Rhett Marshall didnβt plan on moving to this small town, but when your mob past hunts you down, you donβt get to make plans. That was before Frankie. The literal girl-next-door. He knows he doesnβt deserve her, but he canβt tear himself away from the woman who makes him feelβ¦ alive.
Frankie is unaware of their deeply entwined past. But Rhett will never forget her grief-stricken face the night her brother was murdered. And when she becomes a target, the dangerous man he used to be resurfaces to protect her.
