in over his head.

Mollie has always been independent, but finds herself growing attached to the family, including Logan, and discovering there’s more
to life than working and solitude.
Logan and Mollie quickly form a strong bond, and when

My Five Star Review:
Perfection! Not just a romance, no this book is so much more a book of acceptance and hero’s. Logan, the man that survived horrors and came home an Mollie the nurse that saves everyone. Hero’s most people don’t like or want to be called that, they just do what has to be done. That is the truth for both of these powerful characters that is their truth. Connected from youth and so much more, but time and circumstances have robbed Logan of some of those memories.
Small things connect Mollie and Logan but most of all his family. A family that has suffered more than most, and in desperate need for order and help. So instead of asking her out and her calling him out the decide to help each other because of their past. For him because he sees more than what she offers and that scares him. For her she fears he will remember their more recent past and recent her. Overcoming it all makes them stronger and for us one heck of a romance to read. Again, perfection.

Excerpt
Before I can turn around, I feel him at my back and a chill creeps up my
neck. His hands grip my arms and his hard chest pressing against my shoulders
feels like the safest place on Earth. He leans his head down and puts his lips
at my ear. “I wish you didn’t have to leave.”
My heart skips a beat and then thrums wildly. There’s no way out of
visiting my parents at this point. “Me too. But we still have a little time
together. Thanksgiv—” I scoff when I realize my assumption.
“Of course, I want to spend Thanksgiving with you.”
I grin, though he can’t see it. “I have to admit…it will be tough being
away.”
He runs his hands down my arms before slipping one around my middle. “How
long?”
“I’ll probably be there a couple weeks, home a little after Christmas
maybe.”
I try not to flinch when his hand slides beneath the hem of my sweater
and skates across my bare skin. “I can wait, Mollie. If that’s what you want.”
I don’t want to wait, but I can’t get any words out.
“You said we should go slow. Get to know each other. Be open.” He brushes
my hair to the side, exposing my neck. “I may not know everything about you,
Mollie. But I know you. I know your heart and your will and your
determination…and your vulnerability.” He places soft kisses at the top of my
shoulder, searing my skin. In between kisses, his voice is velvet. “I’m not
sure how it happened, but I feel like I’ve known you my whole life.”
I wrap my arm around his neck and let out a soft sigh. “I want you to
know it all.” Turning my head to the side, I part my lips, calling his to mine.
“To have it all.”
He wastes no time joining our mouths and stealing my breath with his
warmth. A warmth that quickly turns to fire as we taste each other with soft
slow nudges and nips.
Dizzy with need, I pull back to look in his eyes, breathing heavily. His
hand cups my chin, keeping my face, my lips, close to his. “I might have some
broken pieces that aren’t fully repaired…and I might have some blank spaces I
can’t remember…but the rest is all yours.” He kisses me once, gently. “If
you’ll have me.”
