Sophie Turner takes a job on the Coultrane Ranch seeking a change to escape the memories of her daughter. She doesn’t expect to find the diversion she needs in her new employer’s rough possession or for his control to ease her pain for short periods. For close to a year, Adrian Coultrane’s sole focus has been on discovering which of his closest friends is responsible for his wife’s death. He doesn’t want to be drawn to ease the pain in Sophie’s eyes or let her needs distract him from his goal of getting redemption for Nicole. When Sophie is threatened by someone in his household, he’s determined to keep her safe, but will he be able to save her in time from an unsuspecting enemy? Culminating in a life or death ending, Adrian will have to set aside his own shock and grief from betrayal to force Sophie to choose between succumbing to her heartbreak or embracing the new life he offers.
