After four years, I should have been over him.
But if that was true, why did I avoid my ex at every opportunity? Not because he did anything wrong, but because I couldn���t bear the inevitable look of disdain on his face when he saw me.
When I finally ventured into Sleepy Hollowthe new home of my exmy best friend assured me I wouldn’t see him. ‘He’s working the night shift,’ she promised, ‘so you won’t have to worry about seeing him tonight.’
If circumstances had been normal, she probably would have been right. But when our normal evening took a sinister turn and I ended up fighting off two would-be abductors, avoiding Oliver was no longer a possibility. Not when my ex was one of the responding officers called to the scene.
And when I see him it’s even harder than I thought it would be. Because even though I screwed up our relationship beyond repair, deep down, I’ve never stopped loving him.
As I headed to the call, I told myself it was just a job.
Just because Shea was involved didn’t mean I’d do things any differently. She was a witness. A victim. It didn’t matter how our relationship ended or how much it hurt.
Except. When I saw Shea, all my instincts demanded I go to her. Not as a cop, but a man desperate to comfort her. But that’s not what she wantedshe couldn’t have made that more clear when she broke up with me.
As the start of the investigation, we had to consider it could have been a random incident. Or that any of the women there could have been the target. Just because Shea was hurt trying to protect her friends didn’t mean she was the one the kidnappers wanted.
Then Shea is attacked again, and it’s terrifying clear she’s the one in danger, bringing home another truth I can’t ignore. I still love her as much as I did four years ago. And no matter what happened between us, there’s nothing I won’t do to protect her.
Shea’s Hero is a second chance romance with a former CIA operative turned police officer hero, a heroine who doesn’t realize her strength, action and danger, forced proximity, twists and turns, and plenty of sweet and steamy moments. Can be read as a standalone novel!
