Where danger hides behind charm, love might be the most dangerous risk of all. Dr. Rowan Townsend has built a reputation as the country’s top pediatric surgeon. He’s known for taking the hardest cases and never walking away from a family in need. Relentless days and unending nights have left Rowan burnt out and alone. Luckily, he’d moved to the small town of Shadows Landing, where his family makes sure he can relax every once in a while. His elder brother is pushing Rowan to find love, but how does Rowan have time to find love when he doesn’t even have time to remember to eat? Nellie Katherine Hale is used to dealing with problems as a school psychologist. However, none of her training could prepare her to help her sister escape a dangerous marriage. Then Nellie comes face to face with the handsome surgeon risking more than his reputation to help them. Love is the last thing on Rowan’s mind until Nellie walks into the hospital. He wants to help her, not just because he’s a doctor, but because he’s finally found someone worth fighting for. As threats mount and hearts are on the line, can Rowan protect the woman he’s fallen for, or will Rowan and Nellie lose more than just their hearts?
