Safe in his arms

She's running for her life. He's hiding from his past. When the two collide, can they emerge with their hearts intact? Fleeing from her violent ex, Megan Talbot arrives in the small beachside town of Haven Bay bloody and bruised. All she wants is a refuge, but her would-be rescuer, brooding and tattooed Tione, clearly thinks she's trouble. Despite his distrust, she can't seem to stay away from him. His warm eyes and gentleness with his four rescue dogs make her feel things she hasn't in a long time, but she can't afford to let her guard down. Not when her ex is on her trail. When her past catches up to her, she discovers that she isn't the only one with secrets, and now everything—including her life—hangs in the balance.
