Jenna Etheridge thought escaping her abusive marriage would be the hardest part. But starting over with her young son, Jack, means more than just running-it means building a life strong enough to withstand the shadows that still follow them.
Enter Luke Charles: Hollywood star, fiercely private and protective of the few people he lets close. When Jenna takes refuge in his Malibu guest house as his assistant and house-sitter, what begins as safety slowly turns into something else-a fragile, undeniable connection neither of them can ignore.
As Jenna heals and rediscovers her voice, Luke becomes more than her employer. He's her anchor, her ally, the man who makes her believe love can be safe again. But her past isn't finished with her. With her ex-husband circling closer and secrets slipping into the open, Jenna must decide if she can risk everything for the hope of a future-for Jack, and for the kind of love that feels like home.
