She’s hiding in plain sight.... Willa Zinc is invisible, and she likes it that way. A childhood of scandal and neglect taught her that people are unreliable and that family is downright dangerous.

Because her childhood didn’t just leave her with scars, it left her with secrets... moreShe’s hiding in plain sight.... Willa Zinc is invisible, and she likes it that way. A childhood of scandal and neglect taught her that people are unreliable and that family is downright dangerous. With her mother missing, her father in jail, and her brother keeping his distance, Willa spends her days chasing squirrels out of people’s attics and staying off the radar. Because her childhood didn’t just leave her with scars, it left her with secrets. Secrets that tie her to the most powerful—and ruthless—family in town. ¬ He’s a walking scandal.... Eli Walker has his secrets, too. He’s spent over two years in the country’s most remote wild lands, trying to walk away from a mistake he can never undo. Then a Forest Service assignment puts him back in Devil’s Kettle, working far too closely with a woman whose wounds Eli can only guess at. She’s the kind of mysterious, sexy trouble he ought to walk away from, but the only place he wants to be is closer. But an unexpected spark... Eli is the last thing Willa needs. He’s attracting attention she doesn’t want...and stirring up wants she shouldn’t satisfy. But her business needs Eli’s stamp of approval, so she has no choice but to keep him close. The problem is, Eli’s just as good at the invisibility game as she is. He sees straight to her hidden heart, and— worse —he reaches for it. Willa thought she’d planned for every doomsday scenario but love? She never saw that one coming. ...will light a dangerous fire. less

She can’t forgive him... Georgie Davis is a work of art. An exquisitely rendered portrait of the modern heiress, she’s as much an asset to the Davis brand as anything in the family gallery. People don't touch masterpieces, of course, but that's fine by her. She's cried enough for one lifetime. Her engagement wasn’t supposed to be a grand romance but then Peter Zinc came along and made her feel things. Messy things. Confusing things... moreShe can’t forgive him... Georgie Davis is a work of art. An exquisitely rendered portrait of the modern heiress, she’s as much an asset to the Davis brand as anything in the family gallery. People don't touch masterpieces, of course, but that's fine by her. She's cried enough for one lifetime. Her engagement wasn’t supposed to be a grand romance but then Peter Zinc came along and made her feel things. Messy things. Confusing things. Things that should’ve disappeared the moment he betrayed the family she adores. But they didn’t, and neither did he. He can’t forget her... Poverty is nothing new to Peter Zinc. But sharing that poverty with a few dozen sheep and an insubordinate dog? That’s a fresh wrinkle. That’s what you get when you cross Georgie Davis, though — a thorough, systematic and well-earned destruction. So why does he want her back so badly? Because she’s not the vapid trust-fund beauty he almost married. There's a whip-smart woman hiding inside that pretty shell who intrigues the hell out of him. And he means to have her. Can two wary hearts learn to love... Then a long-buried scandal rolls back into Devil’s Kettle, ripping apart old lies and threatening to reveal dangerous truths. It’s the kind of upheaval that could destroy Peter’s fragile fresh start and force Georgie to start feeling all the messy, confusing things she’s been avoiding. But with her family’s safety at stake, she’ll have to trust the most dangerous man she knows. He’ll have to become somebody better than the man he’s always been. Somebody who’ll protect the woman he loves...or die trying. ...before it's too late? less
