Romance Suspense

Could Macks Lake be the one town where she can finally stop running?

Gripping new romantic suspense from internationally bestselling Australian author Melissa James.

'I'm coming for you. This time, it's forever…'

Flying Doctor Elly Lavender has spent years on the run from a violent stalker. Her obsessive former patient will do anything and threaten anyone in his campaign to force her to love him. When her most recent cover is blown, she runs for help to the childhood friend she could never get out of her mind – outback cop Adam Jepson.

Isolated, hurting, all Adam wants is to forget. After the deaths of his wife and son three years before, he's moved to the outback with his young daughter, Zoe, to put the past behind him for good. But when Elly walks into his station, she reminds him of all the childhood joy and love he'd forgotten. Soon, he's lost in a desire he never knew could exist. And while his guilt at leaving Elly behind years ago and the vow he made to his dying wife means he can never be the man she needs, he can't stop caring, can't stop trying to make Elly's life right. Though the whole town seems against them, he can't stop wanting the forbidden.

But when anonymous harassment escalates to murder, Elly knows her presence in Macks Lake has put Adam and Zoe's lives at risk. Everyone's safer if she remains alone – a fact that her stalker is very much counting on as he gets ever closer to his prey…
