From bestselling author Anne L. Parks comes both a chilling thriller and moving love story.
Kylie Tate survived a life of dominance and abuse. An up-and-coming criminal defense attorney, she has been assigned to a first degree murder case which could make or break her career. The downside—the second chair is fellow attorney and violent ex-boyfriend, John Sysco.
When she catches the eye of enigmatic billionaire, Alex Stone, she can’t help but be drawn to him. Unfortunately John is not willing to let her go—especially into the arms of another man.
As John’s sanity spirals into darkness, his attempts to get Kylie back escalate, along with the abuse she thought she had escaped. The one glimmer of hope she has is the unconditional support Alex provides. Ravaged by demons from his past, Alex vows to stop at nothing to keep Kylie safe.
But the closer the couple gets, the more Kylie wonders if Alex is truly her savior—or as dark and dangerous as John.

CHRISTINA’S FIVE STAR REVIEW
Kylie Tate is a defense attorney. Let’s face it, it takes a special kind of person to be an attorney. Especially one that has to defend someone’s life (whether they’re innocent or not). But as if her cases weren’t difficult enough, her ex boyfriend (also co-worker) is a piece of work. Not only was he a crappy boyfriend, but he’s an even crappier ex. So much so that she’s ruled out dating anyone else for the foreseeable future. That is, until she literally runs in to the hottest billionaire bachelor out there, Alex Stone.
Alex is, yes you guessed it, the billionaire bachelor that every living woman wants a chance with. Being used to THAT attention, he’s not quite sure what to make of Kylie when she helps him with some car issues. Did she NOT know who he was or did she honestly just not care? I guess there was only one way to find out, right? But finding out meant getting to know her and he wasn’t prepared for it. Not only because she’s the most honest woman he’s met in a long time, but because she’s in danger and keeping her safe has become a necessity for him.
THIS BOOK IS AMAZING!!!! Literally. It has everything you look for in a book. The way this author builds her characters makes you feel as though you’re part of the story and living their lives with them. Then you get to not only experience the fear within the thriller, but all of the intricacies that go along with a murder trial. How awesome is that?!!!!
Full disclosure…is there a cliffhanger? Yes. And OMG what a cliffhanger it is. I’m already trying to get my hands on the next one. I NEED MORE ALEX STONE!!!!!!!!!!
Born and raised in the Rocky Mountains, Anne L. Parks has moved all over the United States with her Navy husband. Legally trained, she switched careers and followed her dream of becoming an author. When not writing, she spends her time reading, doing yoga, mountain biking, and spoiling her German Shepherd, Zoe. And drinking wine.
Parks loves to create stories with mystery, plenty of twists and turns, and loaded with suspense. With a background in criminal defense and a military husband, she feels right at home amongst highly trained, somewhat jaded, ready-to-take-out-the-bad-guys alpha males and the strong, brave women who love them, but can also handle whatever life throws at them. Murders, terrorists, courtroom drama…if it touches on the dark nature of humanity, Parks is unafraid of delving into the depths of depravity—and bringing her readers along for the ride.
