If the Devil himself came for you, I'd chase him into Hell.
Maggie Watson needs to disappear. The small town of Hawthorn Hills, Pennsylvania seems as good a place as any. People here are quirky, but friendly and don't ask too many questions. A perfect place to start over. Convincing the overworked diner owner to hire her was easy. Keeping her past from her new boss's son and not giving in to his flirtation... not so much.
After a successful undercover op, FBI Agent Luke Graham returns to his hometown. His teenage brother is up to no good, and he's forced to choose: his honor or what's left of his family. Now Luke's helping out at his mom's diner, and he's mesmerized by her new server. Beautiful, sweet Maggie can hide her scars from everyone else in town, but not him.
Suddenly he's considering doing the one thing he swore he wouldn't: stay.
But Maggie didn't disappear as well as she thought. When a reminder of her dangerous past is delivered to the diner, Luke and Maggie have to bare their secrets, or risk her newfound freedom. And once again Luke will have to choose between someone he loves and his integrity.
This spicy romantic suspense novel features small-town charm, a plus-size DV survivor, and the man willing to earn her trust. While it is the first book in the Hawthorn Hills series, each book will feature a different couple, with cameos from your new favorite cast of characters.
