Nothing ever
happens by accident.
Ex-combat search and rescue officer Toby McClain had seen all aspects of humanity in his ten years of service until friendly fire took him out of action. But bitterness was something Toby could never do. He was alive. He had his family and, after being ambushed by a door, he had his eyes on the sexy new innkeeper.
Adelaide Nixon had felt the burn of love once already. It was a mistake that cost her six years of her life. It was a punishment she never wanted to feel again, especially when there were two little people who depended on her to keep them safe. The last thing she wanted or needed was the attention of a guy whose family kept the gossip mills turning.
But no secret ever stays hidden in a place like Willow Creek. Even as Toby breaks through Addy’s walls, a new threat comes to town, leaving her no choice but to put more than her heart in Toby’s hands and trust him not to destroy her.

Excerpt:
“I’m sorry,” she whispered, not sure why. It wasn’t like it was her
fault.
His chin tilted in her direction. Shadows played chase across that
beautifully defined lines of his face from the kitchen lights breaking through
the windows. They glimmered off the velvety surface of his breathtaking eyes
and collected in dark pools in the hollows of his cheeks and temples. She
stared hypnotized as he studied her.
“What are you doing, Addy?”
Having not been doing anything, Addy gave a start at the gruff demand.
Her thought scattered as she tried to think.
“I’m not—”
Surprisingly warm fingers cut through the space between them and
ghosted lightly along the side of her cheek. The feather light caress rocked
her all the way to her toes.
“Toby…”
The light shifted and she could just make out the slow curl of his
lips. “You just can’t seem to make up your mind which one to call me, can you?”
The fingers drifted back and curled around the nape of her neck. She was
dragged to him and positioned with her hips cradled between hard thighs. “If it
makes any difference, the way you breathe my name, the way you say it with just
a hint of pleading, makes me all kinds of crazy with the need to devour you.”
Shit.
His fingers tightened in her hair, locking her in place, helpless to do
anything more than allow it when he pulled her closer. Her hands flew to his
shoulders.
“Kiss me, Addy.”
She should have said no. Commonsense demanded it. Logic and
rationality insisted. But his mouth was right there, a delicious, taunting sin
begging her for just one taste.
Her fingers curled into the material of his sweater, gripping him like
a life preserver even as he was the one pulling her under. Her body dipped into
his, no longer under her control. His heady scent of man, soap, and cheesecake
consumed what little sense she had remaining.
She kissed him.
