Klappentext A Cincinnati detective questions everything he knows--and everyone he trusts--in the new novel of romantic suspense from New York Times bestseller Karen Rose . Homicide detective Adam Kimble is no stranger to battling demons. But Meredith Fallon is a different kind of weakness: one that could actually be good for him! if only he would let himself depend on her. Meredith has loved Adam for a year! and seeing how hard he's worked to deal with his PTSD makes her feelings only stronger! but she respects his needs. Her work keeps her busy anyway: she counsels sexually abused women like Mallory Martin to help them reintegrate into the world. But someone doesn't want Meredith helping women like Mallory! and Meredith finds herself in the crosshairs of a very determined killer.

"What did we agree about that word?" "'Stupid'?" "Well, yes. But mostly 'sorry.' Strike them both from your vocabulary right now." Mallory drew a breath and gave a hard little nod. "Eliminated." "Good. Let's walk faster. It's not much further to the caf?, and my toes are freezing." They were going to celebrate. Mallory had signed up for adult education classes today.
