Best Kept Secrets

Zoey Chandler has spent the last year quaking in her boots, scared of her shadow . . . and the male population in general.

So when Deputy Chase Manning, her brother's best friend, moves back to their small hometown after years in a metropolitan police department, she is both wary and intrigued when she realizes he shares traumas as deeply scarring as her own.

In an effort to return a semblance of safety and strength to Zoey's life, Chase makes a proposal: he wants to train her in self-defense techniques to better protect her . . . and her infant child.

But Chase has a secret; he's been offered his own proposal, one that if he chooses to accept, could very well destroy the life Zoey has fought so hard to build.

Contains mature themes.
