In Ruth Kabbah’s world, comic books are king, silence is
golden, and
human contact is a pesky distraction. She doesn’t like
people, which
works out just fine, because the people in this small town
don’t like her.
The exception to that rule? Evan Miller, her
way-too-charming next-
door neighbour…
Ex-military man Evan is all tattooed muscle on the
outside—and a big,
cuddly teddy bear beneath. He’s used to coaxing prickly
people from
their shells, but he’s never met a woman quite like Ruth.
Blunt,
sarcastic, and secretly sad, she’s his exact opposite. She’s
also his
deepest desire.
Soon, Evan’s steady patience and smouldering smiles are melting
Ruth’s reserve. But when small-town gossip from her past
begins to
poison her future, she’s forced to make a choice. Should she
trust Evan
completely? Or is her heart safest alone?
