He came to warn her. The family he works for might be the reason she needs saving.

Hollis Wynne has enough to deal with. Her father is dead, his house is full of memories she hasn't had the courage to sort through, and the last thing she needs is a stranger waiting in his favorite chair.

Especially one who knows more about her inheritance than she does.

Lucan Dray works for the Velanova Group, one of Charleston's most powerful families. He's calm, unsettlingly observant, and carrying a warning Hollis would rather ignore.

Her father left her something nobody expected: a small piece of waterfront property standing in the way of a $640 million deal.

And someone is willing to do far more than negotiate to get it.

Lucan knows how dangerous the people behind the deal can be. He's spent years doing work that respectable men prefer not to discuss. Protecting Hollis should be straightforward.

But she's stubborn, intelligent, and determined to uncover the truth about her father's final secrets.

The closer they get, the harder it becomes to tell where Lucan's professional obligations end and his feelings begin.

Because the danger surrounding Hollis is only the beginning.

And the Velanova family has been keeping secrets for twenty years.

He was sent to protect the family's interests. Falling for the woman who threatens them was never part of the job.

Claim Me is Book 1 of The Velanova Files, an interconnected dark romantic suspense series featuring dangerous loyalties, morally gray characters, and a mystery that unfolds across six novels.
