Every breath counts⸺

especially when you think you’re taking your last…

A vicious attack in her uncle’s stable that nearly took Marnie McAllister’s life, also brought the stunning Marcus Deveraux into it. Marnie is determined she doesn’t need a watch dog, but she sure got one with the infuriating and irrepressible Marcus. He can follow her around all he wants, but she’s not going to be taken in by his gorgeous blue eyes and gentle charm that probably have women falling at his feet. But as Marcus becomes a trusted ally in protecting her, Marnie realizes if she has any hope for true happiness, she is going to have to overcome the traumas that have followed her from childhood.

Marcus is more entranced than he could ever have imagined when he arrives at Sinclair Lake Farm and is reacquainted with Marnie. He understands the recent attack on her life has traumatized her and made her hesitant toward any kind of romantic relationship with him. But no matter the cost, Marcus will do anything to keep her safe and is determined to prove that he is worth taking a chance on. Meeting Marnie again has changed the course of his life, and he is praying that she will come to the same conclusion.
