Can he love her...
And keep her safe?
No one in Turtleback Beach knows that veterinarian Grayson Zale is in the witness protection program—not even the woman who left him at the altar. When a joint inheritance brings Mandi Rivers back to their small seaside town, Gray can’t deny that their connection is as strong as ever. But his mysterious past remains between them; can he reveal the truth without endangering Mandi—and their future?

“You’re the one who’s in a rush to sell your grandmother’s house.”
Mandi picked up a paint scraper from the bucket and slapped it gently against her palm.
“Gray, all I ever wanted was for you to be honest and open with me. If you can promise me that, then we’ll survive working together on this place.”
Something shifted in Gray’s face. He took the scraper from her and began clearing the cracked paint off the back railing.
“I’m an honest man, doing an honest day’s work. Trust me, Mandi. Nobody knows me better than you do. And nobody ever will.”
Was that an answer or a promise? A lump rose in her throat and she swallowed hard against it. Her heartstrings had tangled like wild, windblown hair the first day she’d met him, and it had taken her the past three years to loosen the knots. Grayson Zale was dangerous to her peace of mind. She wanted to believe him...but did she dare?
Acknowledgments
Many thanks to my eldest son for answering my questions (any errors are my own). Your passion for motorcycles inspired me, and the hero in this book loves them as much as you do.
And to my other kids for providing encouragement, support and inspiration. You never know what will make its way into my books!
And, as always, heartfelt gratitude to my editor, Adrienne Macintosh. I’m looking forward to working on this new and exciting series with you!
Dedication
To those who devote their time to rescuing animals, whether wildlife or pets. And to pets for rescuing us.
