LOGINTara Lodge isn't who she used to be. Once the picture-perfect daughter of a powerful Chicago senator, now a runaway hiding her identity and the scars from her past. After a night that nearly cost Tara her life, she vanished into a quiet Nevada town, determined never to be found. Until she met the Finch brothers. Jason is wild, and impossible to resist. A one night-stand with him left her breathless...and wanting more. Jeremiah is steady, intense and wickedly charming, slowly pulling her into his abyss. It doesn't help when she starts working as his assistant, and the flames grow fiercer. Torn between two brothers who both want her, Tara is stuck between passion and protection. But her past is catching up. And she'll have to fight to keep the life and love she has finally dared to build.
View MoreTARA’S POVJason opened his mouth to respond, but before he could get a word out, Betty was already upon us like a perfumed hurricane."Jason Finch! I cannot believe you're sitting here and didn't even think to say hello!" She draped herself over his shoulder, her fingers trailing across his arm in obvious affection. "It's been ages since I've seen you around town. When did you get back?"Jason's discomfort was palpable as he gently tried to extract himself from her grip. "Betty, hi. I'm actually in the middle of a conversation right now."But I was barely listening. The name kept echoing in my head, bouncing around like a pinball. Finch. Finch. Finch."Your last name is Finch?" I asked, cutting through whatever Betty was saying.Jason laughed but it was a nervous sound. "Yeah. Jason Finch. I thought you knew?"My heart was pounding now, panic rising in my chest. "Like the Finch?"Betty turned to look at me properly for the first time, one perfectly sculpted eyebrow arched. "Honey, w
TARA’S POVI was standing in front of Suzie's diner, staring at the welcome board without really seeing it. My stomach was a tight knot of anxiety and something else I couldn't quite name.I responded to Jason's text against my better judgment, and every instinct that told me this conversation was a mistake. But here I was anyway, waiting.The bell above the door chimed as I entered, and Suzie looked up from behind the counter with her usual warm smile. Before I could say anything, she nodded toward a booth in the back corner where Jason sat, his focus was on his phone and I was glad for the distraction. “Thank you.” I said to her and she nodded in response, returning her attention to the customer she was handling. I made my way over, sliding into the seat across from him and deliberately not meeting his eyes. The overhead light cast harsh shadows across the table between us."You look beautiful," he said immediately, sliding his phone into his pocket and leaning back against th
Tara’s POVThe world narrowed down to those electric blue eyes. That was the only way to describe them up close, in full daylight, they were almost unreal, framed by dark lashes that had absolutely no right to exist on someone who was also that tall and that broad-shouldered."Excuse me." Someone snapped behind us. We scrambled apart like teenagers caught doing something wrong. A middle-aged man pushed his cart between us with pointed impatience, and Jeremiah and I both reached for words at the same time."I didn't mean to…""Sorry, I wasn't…"We both stopped. He recovered first, holding out the item he grabbed from the shelf. I had been stretching myself half to death for canned tomatoes.I caught the amusement pulling at the corner of his mouth. "Going to war with the shelf over canned tomatoes?"The laugh escaped before I could stop it, breaking the tension. "They were on sale and I have my priorities.""Clearly." He handed them over, and our fingers brushed during the transfer
Jeremiah’s POVI left Nana's room quietly, pulling the door closed behind me. She fought sleep like she always did; wanting to talk and hold my hand for just a little longer. I never minded. Those moments with her felt like borrowed time, precious in a way that made my chest ache.Aunt Rhoda was in the living room, her reading glasses perched on the end of her nose, while a book was open in her lap."Is she asleep?" she asked, looking up."Finally." I dropped onto the couch across from her, scrubbing a hand over my face. "She fought it though."Rhoda smiled and closed the book, settling to face me properly. "She always does. You know, she woul'd be so happy to have both her boys home, Jerry."I groaned at the nickname. "Don't.""Both of you, under this roof, even just for a little while." She ignored my protest entirely. "It would do her so much good. It would do you good."I knew that. And to be honest, I would have bought the idea but this house held too many painful memories for m
