Beth Venable has seen too much. Witness to a major mob hit, shes placed in protective custody until the trial. But after her third safe house is riddled with bullets, she goes off-grid to save herself. What the FBI cant do, her kinfolk will. The beautiful but forbidding Appalachian Mountains of Kentucky welcome Beth back, dirt roads and rustic shacks a world apart from L.A. But her homecoming—even her blissful reunion with strong, silent Ryal Walker—is made bittersweet by the fight shes brought to the clans doorstep. Hidden in a remote cabin with the man shes always wanted, Beth begins to dream of a new life: her old one. But after so long, with such dangers stalking her…impossible. But love can distill life down to its essence: an elixir of pure hope, nerve—and the will to survive.
