The world had tried to break her. Addie has dreamt of freedom for as long as she can remember-peace away from the torment of her old life. But now that it's finally within her grasp, she's struggling to take those first steps into her new reality. The last thing she wants is a new roommate to see the scars she's desperate to keep hidden, especially not the ruggedly handsome man who steals her breath and sends her heart into overdrive. "I'm nobody's hero. Trust me." All Beckett wants is to silence the demons of his past. The first step is to make amends for not being there when his family needed him the most. That means settling in Wolf Gap for good, even if the town reminds him of all the ways he failed. He never expected to share a home with a blonde-haired beauty with haunting hazel eyes. But he's held captive by her quiet strength and the way she sees everything he tries to hide. Soon, an unlikely friendship becomes so much more. But when forces from Addie's life slink out of the shadows, they could both lose everything they fought so hard for-down to their very last breaths...
