But secrets have a way of surfacing-and when a dangerous stalker and a vengeful family come looking for her, Ruthie's carefully built life starts to crumble.

Enter Jack Hutchinson-former Army Ranger, her best friend's brother, and the only man Ruthie can't seem to keep at a safe distance. As the threats close in and sparks ignite between them, Ruthie has to decide if she's willing to trust Jack with her heart-and her survival-or risk losing the future she never thought she deserved.
