Protecting Anna

Anna Thorn is desperate to start over. She's running from a dangerous past, and looking for a safe harbor. Feeling an instant connection with the bartender at the pub she ends up in is not something she's ready for, but their chemistry cannot be denied.

Ryan Carlisle is ready to put his playboy days behind him and settle down. His path to finding love won't be easy, since the first and only woman to stir his protective instincts and make him dream of forever, is running scared, and only looking for a place to start over.  Not a relationship. 

Learning to trust themselves, and each other, will open Ryan and Anna's hearts to a love that is worth any risk. But can their love survive the ultimate test when Anna's past comes looking for her?

Trigger Warning: This book alludes to a violent relationship.
