THE GIRL BEHIND HIS WALLS

The Girl Behind His Walls

Elijah Blackwood has everything money can buy-and nothing his heart can trust.

At twenty-eight, he is powerful, arrogant, possessive, and devastatingly charming. To the world, he is untouchable. Behind closed doors, he is a man haunted by childhood wounds and the fear of being abandoned again. Living with thalassemia has only deepened that fear, especially after the woman he once loved walked away when she discovered his condition.

Elijah still believes in love. He wants marriage. He wants a woman who will stay.

What he doesn't want is children.

Not because he doesn't dream of a family, but because he is terrified of what his illness could mean for the future-and terrified of loving a child he might one day leave behind.

Then Abigail Lawson crashes into his carefully controlled world.

At twenty-four, Abigail is stubborn, fiercely independent, hardworking, and breathtakingly beautiful-though she would never believe it. Beneath her insecurities lives a woman with dreams of becoming a model and building a name for herself in the beauty industry. But dreams are difficult to chase when sick parents, younger siblings, medical bills, and an empty purse demand her attention.

Their first encounter is anything but romantic.

Their second is unavoidable.

And when they become coworkers, their hatred turns into tension, their arguments into attraction, and their stolen glances into something dangerously addictive.

Abigail wants a husband, children, and a home filled with laughter.

Elijah wants Abigail.

Soon, wanting her becomes needing her, and the man who once feared losing his heart finds himself fiercely protective, hopelessly captivated, and unwilling to imagine his world without her.

But when love demands the future he fears most, will Elijah finally choose Abigail over his walls-or let the past steal his future?
