Book Blurb:
Some secrets keep you safe…
Adeline Rodriguez left her violent past behind, buried her secrets and started over in Verona Bay. Now a successful co-owner in a local pet grooming business, she’s made a life for herself in this idyllic community, and has real friends. Thanks to her past, the only thing she hasn’t mastered yet is a real relationship. And when circumstances lead her to finally let her guard down with sexy Mac Collins, he completely ghosts her. Her first instinct is to close herself off again, but she decides to confront him instead—and that fateful decision puts her directly in the crosshairs of a killer.
Others can destroy you…
Mac has wanted Adeline since the moment they met, but she made it clear that she didn’t want a relationship. So he kept his distance. When they’re trapped together in a remote cabin, things change between them. But Mac’s past has come back to haunt him, so he pushes her away to protect her. Unfortunately, it’s already too late. Adeline is now a target too. To save her, Mac has no choice except to end the threat. Only then can he try to win over the woman he can’t live without. But winning over the feisty Adeline might prove to be harder than stopping a killer.

Review:
This was a really good read. We finally get Adeline’s story, whom we met in earlier Verona Bay books.
It’s actually a pretty emotional story. Adeline has had a rocky past and learning to be open again with other people is scary, but she’s willing to try, especially with Mac.
Mac is the perfect one for Adeline. He is the protector she’s always needed but was afraid to ask for.
This is a romantic suspense so there is the bad guy(s) and the Verona Bay town who step in and up when times get a little rough for Mac and Adeline.
Not to spoil anything, but Adeline is a force to be reckoned with and a protector of her own.
