In the darkest corners of Seattle, danger lurks, and love can be a double-edged sword.

It's a big city. But not big enough for the powerful men after the same woman.

For five long years, Olivia has lived in the suffocating grip of an abusive relationship, her spirit battered, and her freedom stripped away. Just when she believes she’s found a glimmer of safety, her past closes in, threatening to sweep her away in its dangerous current.

Luke is a dedicated officer whose life takes an unexpected turn when he responds to a late-night distress call. He’s no stranger to peril, but the moment he encounters Olivia, everything changes. He feels drawn to her in a way he’s never experienced before. Luke becomes her unexpected savior—but can he protect her from the powerful man who refuses to let her go?

As their connection deepens, they must navigate treacherous waters of trust and survival. Will Luke be able to shield the only woman who’s ever mattered to him, or will her haunting past tear the love they've built to shreds?

My favorite book!

I absolutely loved this book!
Olivia the FMC is the most relatable character! You get to see her grow out of the shell of a woman her ex boyfriend made her into a happy, stronger person. Her life with Matt was written so realistic to how woman in relationships with narcissists and controlling men would be. It’s not as easy as just leaving.
Sergeant Luke Ryder, responded to a call that would change his life. He instantly felt attracted to and protective of Olivia. He said act now and ask questions later as long as she is safe. Caty Lee wrote an amazing MMC that set my standards so high!
Luke is mouthwatering and says the sweetest and spiciest things! That man’s mouth 🥵🥵🥵 has you blushing and giggling.

This story has the most hilarious side characters and I absolutely loved them!
