Everyone in a small town has secrets, but Kate McIntyre's have followed her home.
When a student's admiration for her takes a dark turn, she turns to a hometown hero for help and protection. Ex-Green Beret Daire Rousseau knows the face of evil all too well --and he'll do anything to keep it from this pretty redhead.
Kate McIntyre, college art teacher and sculptor, holds people at a distance. That's how she copes with her internal and external scars, after a car wreck that left her fighting for her life. Art is her only outlet for sensuality--until Daire Rousseau returns to Cadence TN. She's shocked by how much she wants the quiet veteran, and crushed when after one drunken embrace, he pushes her away. But when she realizes she has a stalker, Daire is the man she wants at her side.
Daire Rousseau may have been born to wealth, but he grew up a loner, shuffled off to boarding schools after his mother's death. He joined the Army to prove he was more a man than his father, and found a close-knit band of military brothers. But after being captured and tortured by the enemy, he's fighting a new war--battling to get back to the man he was. He's afraid his scars will never let him forget. Convinced his battered body and psyche will repulse an innocent beauty like Kate, he pushes her away.
Until she needs his help, and only by staying at her side night and day can he protect her. But can they trust each other to look behind the scars?
Come back to Cadence, TN--where secrets can be deadly.
