Rose Fleming has been presumed dead for the last decade. It required leaving everything—and everyone—she loved behind, including MacAllister Campbell. But faking her death allowed her to stay safe until the threat posed by a mysterious villain had passed. Believing it's finally safe again, she returns . . . and runs smack into the only man she ever loved. But Rose was wrong and the stalker she escaped years ago still has her in his sights. Ten years ago, Mac mourned the death of the woman he loved. It's taken years to heal his heart only to discover that not only is Rose still alive, but still in grave danger. Mac can forgive Rose's deception, but he'd never be able to forgive himself if he didn't protect her from the evil still stalking her. The only thing worse than losing her once would be losing her again . . . and he won't let that happen. Contains mature themes.
