Nellie

Nellie MacRae is as unapproachable as she is stunningly beautiful. The devastating secret that shattered her life has left her terrified of finding the love she desperately longs for. Only inside the house where she can lock the door does she feel safe from the one man who has attempted to reach for her heart.

Strikingly handsome, lumberman Rory Haraldsson has an easy-going carefree life. To say he is a content man would be an apt description. When women see him, they start undressing for him. Has never heard the word no from a female's lips until Nellie steps into his life. She is a challenge he means to win.

Chance brings this uneducated lumberman and this troubled sophisticated lady together. Something as illogical as fate breaks through the barriers she has erected around her. Her fear of men has kept them apart as he seeks to heal her wounds with passion she cannot deny. Deep-seated love that cannot be denied brings them together.
