Romance

Nikki Braedon’s abusive parents never let her forget she was an unexpected surprise. Abandoned at sixteen, she’s forced to pay the ultimate price for being unwanted. Her one salvation is Jake, the big brother with whom she shares an unbreakable bond.

The circumstances of his upbringing made twenty-two year old Jake hard-as-nails. His one soft spot is Nikki, the sister he affectionately calls, “Little.” Jake tries to protect Nikki by keeping her at his side constantly; unintentionally exposing her to situations she’s not ready to handle. When Nikki’s drawn into a rivalry between Jake and his longtime enemy, a violent chain of events destroys her trust and confidence; causing her to hide behind Jake.

Realizing his sister must learn to fight her own battles, Jake tries convincing Nikki that growing up and becoming independent doesn’t mean losing his love. Surprisingly, it’s his best friend, Charlie, who finally gets through to her. . .
