Love on the run is a risky proposition…

Julia Hart is convinced her sister was murdered. And she's got her eye on her deceased sibling's husband as the prime suspect. Now, Julia's on the run with her little niece and nephew, desperately trying to protect them from their unhinged father.

Enter former Navy SEAL Sean Miller. A friend of a friend, Sean instantly makes Julia feel safe. The taciturn hulk may not give her the warm and fuzzies, but he'll do anything to protect her and the kids. And as they grow closer, a smoldering attraction soon grows between them. A passion that neither can deny…

Sean wasn't looking for trouble, or romance. But there's no way he can turn Julia and the two kids away to face an angry, desperate man. And this fierce, beautiful woman, touches his heart in a way he never imagines possible. And if he had imagined it, he might have run in the opposite direction. Because if there's one thing he's learned in life is that love equals pain.

But sometimes, the pain is worth it…
