He never expected someone like her… Redemption Harbor security expert Bradford never thought he would fall in love, until Hope blew up his world. But the morning after their wedding in Vegas, she disappeared—and he was shipped out to places unknown. He still doesn’t know why she ran, and he has to learn to live with that. But the one thing he can’t accept is living without her. So when she makes contact and tells him she needs him, he won’t be walking away this time. Now he’s ready to burn down the world to keep her safe. Investigative journalist Hope Berkley has never gotten over Bradford. But no matter how much she loves him, it never would have worked. Both their jobs are inherently dangerous, and he was too overprotective of her. Aside from that, how could they have a real marriage when they were never in the same state or continent at the same time? But now that a dangerous enemy is gunning for her, she can’t trust anyone except Bradford. As they race to stay alive and uncover the truth, she finds herself struggling to protect her heart from the biggest threat of all: Her estranged husband.
