When Connor O'Dwyer's brush with death suddenly ignites a fierce attraction to Meara Quinn—his best friend's best friend and a fixture in his tight-knit Irish circle—everything between them gets deliciously complicated. Meara feels the spark just as intensely but guards her heart fiercely, terrified of losing Connor and their easy friendship if she lets herself fall. As Connor struggles to convince Meara that what burns between them is worth the risk, an ancient darkness from his past emerges, forcing him to fight for everything and everyone he loves. This is pure Nora Roberts magic: sizzling chemistry, a richly drawn community in County Mayo, and the kind of love that's worth standing your ground for.

Include atmospheric instrumentals with whispered harmonies, acoustic intimacy, and building tension. Artists like Hozier, Florence + The Machine, and Bon Iver. Moody, magical, tender yet dangerous.”
