Synopsis

With her frayed jeans and cascade of tousled dark hair, Lynn Shaw looks more like one of the teenage residents of Horizon House than their counselor. So it’s no wonder State Senator Erik Gunther mistakes her for one. Not that he exactly fits the description of a politician, with his movie-star looks and athletic build. Even Lynn, cynical, stubborn, and decidedly not looking for a relationship, can’t ignore her body’s response to the man.

Allegedly, he’s come to defend Lynn from angry locals who don’t want her home for delinquent girls in their neighborhood. But as far as Lynn is concerned, he’s looking for a photo op, a chance to play the hero–the last thing either she or her troubled girls need.

What they need is understanding. Lynn knows teenage rebellion all too well. And she knows firsthand its heartbreaking price. She won’t touch the good senator with a ten-foot pole only to watch him disappear once he gets what he wants. Unfortunately, Erik refuses to go away.

The moment Erik looks into her emerald eyes, his interest in work falls into serious competition with his interest in Lynn Shaw. Her rejection of his assistance only intrigues him further. He is determined to know her–and to help her. If that means practically moving into Horizon House, so be it.

But as the two engage in a battle of hearts, it becomes clear that Lynn is waging a private war of her own, against demons of the past–and against her overwhelming desire for the one man who may be worth fighting for.

About Tami Hoag

Born in Cresco, Iowa and raised in Harmony, Minnesota…Tami Hoag knew she wanted to be a writer at a very young age. Her first job after graduating from high school was in the La Crosse Tribune circulation department. Before publishing her first novel, she also worked as a photographer's assistant, trained show horses, and sold designer bathroom accessories. She began her career as an author in 1988, writing category romances for the Bantam Books Loveswept Line. After several years of success in that field, Hoag switched her focus to single-title suspense novels. She has had thirteen consecutive New York Times bestsellers, including five in a 20-month span. Her novel Night Sins became a TV miniseries starring Valerie Bertinelli and Harry Hamlin.

Hoag and three other authors who made the leap from romance to thrillers at roughly the same time (Eileen Dreyer, Elizabeth Grayson and Kimberly Cates) have formed a group they call the Divas. The group provides support and encouragement for each other, and Hoag often thanks them in the acknowledgement section of her books.

Tami Hoag currently lives in Palm Beach County, Florida where she is also known as a top competitive equestrian in the Olympic discipline of dressage. Other interests include the study of psychology, and mixed martial arts fighting.

No thank you. My final say? Skip this one. Lol. Way better cheesy romance books out there.......more

I've really grappled with this rating. I would mark it 3.5 if that was possible; to be clear, I liked this book. I cried at the end, if that is any indication (though I cry at the drop of a hat, so that comes with a grain of salt). Though Tami Haog is probably my top author by sheer number alone, thi......more

I wouldn't have normally picked this up, but I did after I learned that Ivan is distantly related to Tami Hoag back when we first started dating. As I'm systematically clearing out the audiobooks on my Rhapsody, I finally arrived at this one, over two years later. As romances go, this one had some el......more

Goodreads review by Amy on September 03, 2012

My first book my Tami Hoag. It was pretty good. The premise of Lynn & Erik meeting, and the banter between them was really enjoyable. A bit of a love/hate attitude. In my oppinion Lynn beats herself up a bit much, about her past, and the whole "I'm not worthy", about having a happy ending with the gu......more

Goodreads review by Amy on September 03, 2018

This was a sweet romance. I liked the progression of the relationship between Lynn and Erik. I liked the "turmoil" of the Horizon House that they were fighting. I thought Hoag did a good job of showing the growth for Erik and his acceptance that Lynn was more important than anything else. I accept t......more
