But as they grow closer, Haven stumbles onto Trevor’s closely guarded secret, one he’s hidden his entire life. And despite his protests, now it’s Haven’s turn to put everything on hold to help Trevor. Will he let her in and trust her with a secret that could blow his professional and personal world apart?

Another winner by Jaci
Wow one of the best books by Jaci! Loved how she wrote this story. It was very romantic and oh those sizzling sex scenes wow!! Loved how she brings in all of her other characters from previous books. Looking forward to reading the next one but hoping she writes Nathan's story of love too!!
Not up to par
Wasn't expecting this story to be tough to finish but it was. This box didn't have half the zest of the other stories. Disappointed :(
