Deep in the shadows of North Carolina's Nantahala forest,
two strangers find themselves running from danger-and
straight to each other ...
Lexie Scott may be the
FBI director's daughter, but she's struggled her whole life
to stay out of trouble and avoid the spotlight. When she's
kidnapped by a survivalist group bent on teaching her father
a lesson, however, she must summon the courage she never
knew she had. Lexie escapes their wilderness
headquarters-only to find that she's not alone in the
woods...
Suspended cop Jack Miller came to North
Carolina to rescue his sister from her abusive marriage to
the survivalists' charismatic leader. Coming to Lexie's aid
can only compromise Jack's plans. But he can't ignore
Lexie's plight...or resist her appeal.
Tall, dark
and rough-around-the-edges has never been Lexie's type. But
in the lush, shadowy forest, Lexie has no choice but to
trust this intimidating stranger. She's just not sure she
can trust her heart...
