Sutter Lake

She's always been his safe place to land. Jensen has shared a special bond with Tuck for as long as she can remember, their friendship a language that never needed words. But as life threw her one curveball after another, that secret language turned to stony silence. He's always been her protector. Tuck has looked out for Jensen since the day she was born. As his best friend's little sister, he's tried to keep her firmly in the friend category. But she's always been more. All it takes is one moment of weakness to send Tuck's fiercely guarded walls crumbling to the ground. As a new fire burns between them, someone watches. Someone who doesn't like the new life Jensen's building for herself. And they'll stop at nothing to keep her in the dark.

A woman trying to rebuild her life. Kennedy is doing all she can to escape, to prove that she's not the monster her father was. A simple life of peace and service is all she needs. A man haunted by a past he can't forget. Cain has buried his demons under layers of control and success. The only thing he needs is his company and his solitude. Certainly not a woman with captivating green eyes filled with ghosts so similar to his own. He's a reminder of the life she's left behind. And she's a threat to his tightly guarded control. As sparks fly between them, they discover that what they might need most is each other. But with pasts like theirs...you never know when darkness might descend.

She's hiding secrets. For Anna, keeping her deepest scars hidden from the world has always been a necessity-from the bruises of her childhood to the mistake that nearly cost her everything. To keep herself safe, she must keep everyone around her at a distance-especially the man who has tempted her since the moment they met. His demons are taunting him. Mason has done his best to bury the past by achieving more than he ever thought possible. But even with all of his success, his life feels empty. When tragedy strikes, Anna is left fighting to protect the only family she has left. And Mason will do anything to keep her and her loved ones safe-even if that means the ring of wedding bells. But as a new spark ignites between them, someone is watching. And they'll do whatever it takes to snuff out that light for good.
