Nona Conrad has been making it through "by the hardest."
Each day is a struggle-to go on after her parents' sudden
death, to win her rightful inheritance from her
untrustworthy half-brother, and to raise her high-spirited
younger sister. So when Nona is unexpectedly hired to
manage a fishing camp deep in the Arkansas woods, it seems
like a heaven-sent opportunity to settle down at last.
Yet it isn't long before the strong-willed redhead clashes
with two men. One is a mysterious, well-dressed stranger
who grabs her arm and calls her by name before driving off
in a big sedan. The other is the camp's new owner, Simon
Wright. Straightforward, self-assured, and protective, he
seems to know a lot about Nona…and presents a peril she
never imagined.
Simon has his own very good reasons for dogging her steps
and hovering over the sisters to keep them safe. He just
wasn't prepared for Nona's self-reliance and refusal to
trust him-or the instant, irresistible attraction drawing
him all too close.
While Nona decides whether Simon is an ally or a charmer
with his own agenda, someone driven by greed will do
anything to find out what she knows…and an unsuspected
enemy is making sure that Nona and Simon will soon have
nowhere to run.
