How much is love worth?
Twenty-two-year-old Kristin and her single mom have always struggled to make ends meet. When her mother’s body begins to deteriorate after many backbreaking years of working as a housekeeper, Kristin must say farewell to her college dreams and hello to a full-time job waitressing. She doesn’t really mind. After all, giving up on her dreams will be her penance for that one horrible night.
Her luck begins to turn when she meets Daniel Meyers. Daniel is sexy and funny, but most importantly, he wants to get to know the real Kristin. It doesn’t hurt that he’s also extremely wealthy and intent on protecting her. Kristin feels safe with him. She wants to open up to him, to share the details of the awful night that changed her life. But she can’t shake the feeling that Daniel may be keeping a dark secret of his own…

Excerpt
“I wish I were more observant.”
He turned to face me again, his eyebrows
scrunched up in confusion. “How so?”
“I wish I could…” I swallowed hard as I
reconsidered my words. “Nothing. I guess I just have a hard time reading
people…sometimes.”
“Like me?” He smiled at my raised eyebrows. “I’m
not that mysterious,” he said, rounding the island until he was next to me. “I
want the same things you want.” He held his hand out for me to take, then he
began leading me toward the glass doors overlooking the patio. “I want comfort
and security. I want to feel needed…and I want to need someone.”
My heart raced as we stepped out into the
brick-paved backyard garden. “It’s dangerous to need someone,” I replied,
breathless as he led me to some stairs leading up to a courtyard on a higher
level.
The courtyard was well lit with pathway lights
and spotlights illuminating a few trees, which lined the back wall of the
garden. We sat on a concrete bench in the center of the courtyard, a chill
racing through me as he laced his fingers through mine.
“We’ve all been hurt, Kristin,” he said, his
eyes focused on some distant memory.
“Who hurt you?” I asked, my voice a bit shaky.
He blinked and turned to me to refocus his
attention. “Another time,” he replied with a smile that barely curled the
corners of his mouth. “I promise.”
I nodded, gladly accepting this answer because
it allowed me to postpone my own dark truth.
