About this book
When family loyalty demands the ultimate sacrifice, she agrees to marry the man who once broke her heart—a brooding, secretive stranger who guards his secrets as fiercely as he guards his heart. Living under the same roof with Rhys Dupris tests everything she thought she knew about him, especially when the tension that's always simmered between them becomes impossible to ignore. As she uncovers the truth behind his mysterious absences and guarded nature, she discovers a man far different from the one who hurt her—one who's protective, tender, and unexpectedly devoted to her and her nephew. What begins as a convenient arrangement to save her family just might become the real thing, if she can forgive the past and let herself fall for the man he's always been.
