About the Book


Two years ago, Cannel Crow experienced the worst day of her life. She was taken from a supermarket, and forced to spend a year with a man that treated her worse than a neglected, chained up dog.

One year later, she’s saved by a shadow organization that believes the law is a joke, and the only person you can count on is you.

After another year, she finally realizes the law’s limitation firsthand when the man that bought her from human traffickers, and then forced her to comply to his every whim for a year, is given a plea bargain for names of others in the operation.

Knowing that her abuser will spend the rest of his life in the lap of luxury under an assumed name, Cannel spirals.

At least, she begins to.

Then Wilhelm Schultz, call me Will, walks into her narrow world, larger than life, and changes her reality between one breath and the next.

The abrasive, larger, gruff police detective sees the world in black and white. There is right, and there is wrong.

Until he falls for a woman that needs him to see shades of gray.

The second he sees the world like she needs him to, there’s not a single thing on the planet that’ll stop him from fighting for her.

Not even the oath he swore to protect and do no harm.

Caroline's Review
🌟🌟🌟🌟

Really enjoyed Will and Cannel's story.

"The moment I'd seen him walking across the parking lot next to his partner, something weird and fluttery had started happening in my chest."

Cannel Crow finds it very challenging being around men. However, from the moment she meets Willhelm Schultz, she knows he is the one to help her move forward with intimacy, and help her live again.

"I almost lost you and I didn't even know that I needed you."

Will is a good guy. His nieces are pretty much his world and he's dedicated to his job. He's totally smitten with Cannel at first sight and realises quickly that she's skittish, but he's determined to take things at her pace.

Cannel (how would you say that name? Drove me kinda nuts deciding how I should say it! LOL) and Will were sweet and hot together. She had trust issues to overcome, as well as physical issues, but I loved how she instinctively knew that Will was someone good. Cannel was something of a contradiction. She could be incredibly skittish yet strong and stoic and full of fire. Will was such a great guy - I loved his focus and dedication. He was sweet and indulgent with his nieces, and I also loved how he stood up for Cannel. Overall, I enjoyed this book but, I gotta say, that there were a few nasty characters that I absolutely hated, so I spent half the time loving on Cannel and Will, and the other half hating on these other characters! However, great story and unexpected plot arc, as usual from this fab author, plus an intro to some promising new characters.
