He didn't believe in forever... When a serial killer brought FBI Special Agent Ben Davidson deep into the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina, he never expected to have his life turned upside down by a chestnut-haired dynamo. He has no desire to enter into a relationship, let alone a permanent one, but just a few days with fiery equestrian therapist Gemma Mabley puts that conviction to the test. As the serial killer he came to catch puts Gemma in his crosshairs, Ben has to decide which is more important—protecting his heart or protecting Gemma. She was a forever kind of woman... Gemma Mabley had tried nearly her entire adult life to find a man who both loved her and wasn't intimidated by her overprotective older brother. She never dreamed that that man would be her brother's former commanding officer. Within days of Ben's arrival in her sleepy little town on the hunt for a serial killer, Gemma knows that he's "the one." She has her work cut out for her, though, if she wants a happily ever after with the handsome agent. While he obviously finds her attractive, he is dead set that they aren't compatible. Will it take nearly losing her for Ben to realize that he can't live without her?
