Overview

Zak Tifour loathes violence, and who could blame him? Two years ago, it destroyed him. It's one thing to witness death, yet another to be responsible for the carnage. To survive, he hides in a small town, but when an attractive doctor veers off the road, his self-imposed exile is threatened. Though drawn to the woman's generous heart, Zak's terrified his darkness will engulf her light. Lexie Draden knows sacrifice. She has dedicated her life to medicine. But no matter how skillful she is, it's impossible to save everyone. As a surgeon, she accepts this brutal truth-until it becomes personal. Relocating is tough, but when she stumbles into the arms of a handsome stranger who doesn't pry into her history, life takes a turn for the better. The only downside, the man's past may be worse than hers. Will their secrets and broken promises destroy their budding romance, or will love heal their damaged souls?
