About this book
When a woman running from her past reluctantly lets a devastatingly charming contractor into her life, she discovers that sometimes healing means trusting someone with the truth of who you really are. Shepard sees through her carefully constructed walls with those amber eyes of his, and suddenly the dangerous proximity of him rebuilding her crumbling cabin becomes less about the house and more about the walls around her heart he's quietly dismantling. But as their connection deepens and Shep becomes her safe harbor, a specter from her past emerges to remind her that safety might be the one thing she can't have. This is a swoon-worthy romance about finding strength in vulnerability and discovering that real love means someone willing to stand beside you in the dark.
