After a lifetime under the control of her cruel father, she has finally fled. But running does not mean you leave all your problems behind. After being saved from a gruesome death while on the run, she accompanies the young Clayton Baxter to his family's home: the Baxter Homestead. But Tilly's troubles are far from over. As Clayton begins to show his true colors as a cowardly, conniving villain, Tilly finds herself thrust deeper and deeper into intrigue and even danger. Luckily, though, there are people looking out for her. Mrs. Baxter - Clayton's mother and a tornado of a woman - has adopted her as one of the family. Clayton's brother, Adam, loves her like a sister. And then there is Paul. A man of mystery, who showed up at the homestead not long after Tilly, he is always there... watching her, protecting her, perhaps even... loving her? She does not know. No one knows who Paul really is, or where he came from. She only knows that he is the strongest man she has ever known, and the only man with whom she has ever felt safe. She only knows that Paul understands her, because he also is on the run from a past he only wants to forget. But the past is never really gone. And as Tilly's and Paul's past lives reach out to threaten them once more, they both realize that they can only find safety with each other. They can only find happiness in the arms of someone who understands what they have gone through, and what they have done. They can only find love if they stop running, and face what is coming... together. less

Angelica Hart's storytelling is second to none." - Readers Favorite In a savage world, only the brave can save her... *** Harriet Palmer has lost all. Captured by evil men in the dead of night, her family murdered before her eyes, she has become little more than a slave. But when she manages to escape, she runs as though her life depends on it - for indeed it does. Pursued by the same men who have kept her hostage, wounded and near to death, she encounters a man who will teach her what it is to trust, to learn, to love. At first she sees him only as a savage, a man who lives in the wild and is more than a little wild himself. But soon Harriet learns how much more he is. Mohe is a Cherokee. A man who has lived among the forests and open spaces of his people, but who also knows the world of the white man. When he finds Harriet wounded, he knows nothing of her - only that she is hurt, and that he must protect her from whatever evils have come into her life. As he nurses her to health, though, he comes to know Harriet. To love her strength. To love her kindness. To love her. But the men who came for Harriet once are still on her trail. Led by a man who knows only hatred and blood lust, they will never stop until they find her. Until they take her back, and kill any who dare to help her. Can Harriet escape them long enough to find help? Can her protector stand against the men who follow her? Harriet does not know. But she knows that, for any chance at life and love, she must trust herself only to the brave... less
