He never planned to fall for her. Now he’ll risk everything to save her.
As a special agent—and a self-proclaimed bachelor—Brian Malone has rules that keep his life controlled and complication-free. Until Tess Bingham.
Tess has sacrificed too much to gamble on a man with a reputation for being a player.
She put med school on hold to raise her teenage brother, Andy, and built a stable life working as the medical examiner’s assistant.
When a storm damages their home, Brian offers Tess and Andy the use of his family’s beach house while repairs are made.
Soon, he’s checking in far more often than necessary—and pretending the attraction between them doesn’t exist becomes impossible. Then Tess disappears.
Now Brian isn’t just investigating a crime… he’s hunting the people responsible. Because this isn’t just another case. It’s the woman who won his heart. And he’ll break every rule to bring her home.
