Book Description:
DAVID:—A SHATTERED HERO WHO'D RETURNED TO CLAIM HIS BELOVED…
Even he wasn't sure how he'd survived, but David Moore was finally free after six years in captivity...a lonely man whose face and voice were unrecognizable as those of the husband and father who'd been declared dead. Only his dreams of sweet, vulnerable Kathy and his baby son Ben had kept him going, but now that he'd come back, David wasn't sure there'd be any room in their new lives for him.

RUGGEDLY MASCULINE AND DEFINITELY UNTAMED
Kate Moore had never given up hoping for a miracle to bring her husband back - but raising a child alone had forced her to grow up, transformed her into a strong, sure woman. Men had pursued her but never tempted her to risk loving again...until the enigmatic handyman who'd befriended her son gazed at her with fierce intensity. Could he somehow hold the secret to her shuttered heart?

Tess Baron at first seems like an uptight business woman with no feelings for anyone other than herself. But in this story, as in life, not everything is as it seems. Nick Trejo suddenly appears and nothing is the same for Tess again. Tess has never known love in her life, so for her life is about her work and the family business. Tess is drilling for oil that could bring in millions of dollars, but at the same time she may cost Nick his family's fortune and his grandfathers dream. At first, Tess is unimpressed with Nick and his plea for her to stop drilling, but she soon learns Nick will pull out all the stops to convince her to do the right thing. Nick is unaware of the price that Tess will have to pay in order to help him. Even though Nick and Tess seem to be at a impass they are still deeply attracted to each other. Nick and Tess give us a story of love, courage, faith, and any other emotion that you can think of. This is a great start to the series.
