Attacked, kidnapped, and held against her will, Clara Smith managed to survive a psychopath and his games. But the past is coming back to haunt her and the other women from those horribly dark days. There's only one man she could ever trust to look out for her, and when he's assigned to watch over her she's hoping they can get beyond the pain from their past. Elliott Timmons will always protect Clara no matter what the cost to him. He did it ten years ago, and he's about to do it again. With his best friend and teammate Craig Yoshi watching his back again, he's going to do whatever it takes to protect Clara from the newest threat, and maybe heal the wounds still haunting them both. While Craig doesn't know the indescribably beautiful Clara as well as his friend, he senses an indomitable spirit he wants in his life. Now all they have to do is survive what comes next.
