MINE THROUGH WINTER

Kim Calloway repairs wooden boats and has never let anyone take care of her. Then her brother Theo dies, and a clause in his partnership agreement says she must live at Harrow Point for a year under the guardianship of his best friend, Taylor Thorne, or his company goes to the man who wants to tear it apart.

Taylor is a billionaire who controls everything and has never once said please. He promised Theo he’d keep her safe, and he can’t tell the promise from the want. As winter closes in, a dead man’s voicemail points to a secret worth killing for, and Taylor’s need to protect her threatens to cost him the one thing he can’t bear to lose.

Standalone, with a guaranteed HEA.
