Taken

He didn't know where he was going. But he knew what he was running from.

Jennifer Rucker stares death in the face from inside a wrecked car when Wilson Proctor miraculously appears from the fierce winter blast and carries her to safety. But shelter has a price. Stranded in his remote trailer as the storm kills power and closes every road, hypothermia forces an unthinkable act for Jennifer: sharing body heat, skin to skin, with a man she thinks possesses her.   

When panic, misunderstanding, and false criminal accusations tear their fragile truce apart, Wilson faces a terrible choice—let her leave and risk prison for a crime he didn't commit, or keep her against her will "just long enough" for the truth to surface. 

Then Eddie Spivey arrives, a remorseless ex-con who wants Jennifer all to himself. While she's presumed dead, a search party drags the creek for her body. Only Eddie and Wilson know she's alive. And Eddie has already decided that Wilson is just a loose end waiting to be cut.

In the freezing dark, one person will kill to survive. 

One will kill to protect. 

And one will carry the weight of both truths forever.
