Garrick Rodenheiser crashed, burned and found a second chance when he crawled away from the wreckage of his life four years ago. And while he hasn’t exactly escaped his past, he’s kept it far enough away. Until trouble in the form of a rain-soaked, bleeding woman comes banging on the door of his remote cabin. True, she doesn’t look like a reporter. But the word trust simply isn’t in Garrick’s vocabulary anymore. Crossword puzzle creator Leah Gates has a few words of her own for her reluctant savior: querulous, adamantine...irresistible. She isn’t sure if it’s cabin fever, loneliness or just plain fate that drew them so magically together. But she does know that falling in love is the easy part. Trusting the future is a different challenge entirely. “One of today’s quintessential authors of contemporary fiction...Ms. Delinsky is a joy to read.”—Romantic Times
