Sometimes Love is Worth the Risk

Sarah Jennings knows fear. After escaping an abusive relationship eight years ago, Sarah finally has the quiet life she’s always wanted, and she’s less fearful than she’s ever been. Until a random act of brutal violence reminds her that safe is only an illusion.

Mark Summers’ plan was always to marry his high school sweetheart and have a large family with her. He never doubted this plan until he finds his wife in the arms of another man. Left heartbroken, he devotes himself to running his security business and following his passion for protecting the vulnerable.

And Sarah Jennings is as vulnerable as they come.

Scared and wanting to run again, Sarah can’t deny there’s something extraordinary about this handsome stranger dead set on protecting her. Mark will stop at nothing to keep her safe from the madman out to get her, but as love becomes a distraction, he realizes he might be in over his head.

Just as things start to settle down and Sarah feels safe again, her past comes back and threatens her happily ever after. Mark will have to rewrite the rules if he wants to save the woman he loves and secure their future together.
