About this ebook

A woman on the run from her ex-husband struggles to trust the handsome stranger she is falling in love with.

Hiding from the past, jumping at shadows . . . Welcome to Jenna Harper’s life ever since her ex decided murder was the way to punish her for moving on. Yet Jenna survived—and continuous survival means eluding her attacker: no unnecessary risks, no credit cards and definitely no men. But despite her cautiousness, Jenna can’t deny her attraction to Beau Travis, the rugged carpenter fixing up her B and B. Neither can she ignore the recent mishaps that could blow her cover. Are the two connected? A troublemaker in high school, Beau was never the dependable type. Is he a suitor or a suspect?

The answer could mean her life.

    3.5 stars (some sites require a whole number for rating so rating may vary). It's never explained why Molly and Jenna hired Killian if Beau was their first choice of carpenter/remodeler--other than it does provide one more person as a suspect who might want to damage the B&B. I'm not quite sure how Jenna comes to buy Molly's B&B. It appears Jenna's dad knew Molly in the past, but I'm not sure why Jenna would have fled to her.It takes a while for us to find out what happened between Jenna and Courtland. I suspected who was behind it from the way things were done. It seems that Beau has loved Jenna since he was a teen but after overhearing her father tell Molly some things, Beau decided not to pursue any relationship with her back then--and presumably they left for Michigan at some point and lost track of each other. That past relationship mitigates a bit the fast pace at which their romance progresses in this novel.
