Note to readers: Hey Guys! Safe guard is now under contract and I'm only able to post a sample chapter. It's coming Sept. 5, 2017 on amazon, so stay tuned!

The DeLucas are back in this second installment of the family saga.

Hugh DeLuca knows what he wants from life: marriage, family, contentment. He's had it with women more interested in their careers than anything or anyone else. The last one broke his heart and nearly broke his spirit. So why can't he get his brother's partner out of his mind and his dreams? She's exactly the sort of woman he's trying to avoid, but they keep getting thrown together and he can't seem to forget her.

Chris Hart was the youngest person ever to make detective in her precinct and she's proud of the career she's built. She loves her partner, but wishes she could forget about his gorgeous older brother. He makes her nervous and she's developed a ridiculous school-girl crush that he seems completely oblivious to. She's much too old for this sort of thing! But Finn's wedding keeps her in all-too frequent contact with Hugh. How is she supposed to forget him when she has to see him nearly every day?

When six bodies are discovered on Hugh's new job site, it shuts down construction and he turns to Chris for help. Will they be able to solve the mystery before one of them gets killed? Will they be able to overcome their preconceived ideas of what the other is looking for in a relationship and find the love that is waiting for them?
