Six foot two of raw masculinity is her best witness protection
Face-to-face with the woman who jilted him, Colin O’Brien tells himself he’s over her. What the charming rancher doesn’t know is that the man Melissa Roark Rancic married has forced her—and her infant daughter—to live a charade of love. And now, about to testify to his criminal deeds, she’s shaken by rekindled feelings for Colin and scared that he’ll discover her child is his.
Though angry, Colin vows to protect Melissa from her vengeful ex...while safeguarding his own heart. But once he steps up, he can’t step away. No danger can keep Colin from the woman he never stopped loving.
He was close enough to see the tears streaming down her cheeks.
Ah, hell. He hadn’t meant to cause that.
“You want to know what my life was like?” she pushed.
“Imagine the worst day you’ve ever had…” Her eyes were wild; he’d never seen her like this before. “And then imagine people were getting hurt all around you and you had no power to stop it.”
“Tell me what he did to you, Melissa,” he said. He needed to hear the words.
“Right now all I can think about is staying alive so that I can take care of my little girl. I get that you hate me. I hurt you and I probably deserve whatever anger you hurl at me. But my life has been hell and I just want this nightmare to end. Nothing else matters until it does.”
Colin couldn’t think of one positive thing to say to calm her down so he threw all caution to the wind, pulled her into his arms and kissed her.
