Breaking Rules

A small-town protector romance about the one man she can't forgive and the danger only he can stop, from Diane Benefiel, USA Today bestselling author of Dangerous Secrets.

Heartbreak Falls Police Chief Beckett Donovan has kept his distance from Fallon Cooper for over a decade—ever since he broke her heart. That distance disappears the moment the Crowleys—the family Beckett's building a case against—send one of their own to break into Fallon's house and make sure he gets the message: Back off, or she pays for it.

Fallon doesn't want Beckett's protection any more than she wants to admit the pull between them never faded. But it's not just Beckett the Crowleys are after anymore—it's her. And as the threats escalate from words to violence, he has no choice but to break every rule he's set for himself to keep her safe.

Breaking Rules is a small-town protector romance with a second-chance love story, a single-dad hero, escalating danger, and a heroine who won't back down, no matter who's coming for her.

You'll love the grumpy protector, second-chance romance, and small-town suspense with heart.
