He was her protector by duty. She was his salvation by heart.
Vivian thought her life's story was mostly written. At fifty-two, she was a widow navigating the quiet of an empty nest-until a predator's shadow fell over her. Kidnapped and pushed to her limits, Vivian's survival rests on her iron will and Jethro, a veteran FBI agent who has lived for nothing but the badge.
In the harrowing aftermath, the professional lines blur. Jethro sees a strength in "Viv" that he's never found in D.C., but duty-and Vivian's own fears of being "unladylike"-keep them at arm's length. When the case ends with the villain's death, Vivian returns to her family, only to find that she can no longer fit into her old, small life.
A year later, a surprise visit to a D.C. coffee shop changes everything. Jethro is ready to leave the sirens behind for High Timber, his inherited Montana ranch. But can two people who have already lived a lifetime find the courage to start a new one together?
