Description:
Cassie Gambol is on the run. In what seems like another lifetime, her ex-husband nearly ended her life and effectively ended her successful career as a vascular surgeon. But even though the justice system found him guilty of attempted murder, he fled while awaiting sentencing and Carly Sunderland became Cassie Gambol.

Fleeing Los Angeles, she heads to small and off the map Petal, Georgia to start her life again.

Shane Chase, a man who’s held himself away from commitment since his fiancée dumped him several years before knows the beautiful newcomer is hiding something. He’s wildly attracted to her strength and her underlying vulnerability as well.

But the last thing Cassie wants is another big, overwhelming man who wants to control her life. A battle begins between Shane, who knows what he wants and Cassie, who knows she needs to do everything she can to keep a distance between herself and the very handsome sheriff.

But Cassie’s ex is back and he wants her dead.

My View:
To be perfectly honest I didn't like this book all that well. It wasn't the story itself, but Shane Chase that did me in. Personally I thought that Cassie was too good for him. He wasn't a likable character to me in the first book, and I didn't like him much in the second. That being said, I like series books, so this book was a necessary read to go on with the rest of the books. It wasn't bad in the fact that the secondary characters were all great. I love Shane's mother, with her big hair and all. She makes up for some of the loss with Shane's character.
