Clayton Andrews is a loyal bodyguard and driver. With his large muscular frame and background in law enforcement, his role as protector is fitting. But it also takes over his life, leaving him emotionless, untrusting and lonely. While in Savannah on a recovery mission, he's met with the unexpected. Distractions are something he can't afford and-she's a distraction. Lacy James is finally coming to terms with the loss of her mother. Working as a certified nurse's assistant at the same rehab facility where her mother was recently a patient is Lacy's way of giving back. But not everything is what it seems, and when things begin to unravel, she's unsure if he's the reason. Clayton and Lacy's paths have crossed before, and it's not long before their brief encounter from the past comes rushing back. Without letting on to their similar interests in finding out the shady truths about Magnolia Woods, they unintentionally set in motion events that could cause them both harm. Will the two learn the truth without jeopardizing his mission and her sanity, or will they learn that some truths belong hidden?
About the Author: TL Mayhew is a Contemporary and Dark Romance writer from Nebraska. Her love for reading started back in elementary school when her favorite books, The Black Stallion, Black Beauty and Misty of Chincoteague all seemed to have one theme... a horse as the leading character. It's fair to say that since then her reading tastes have changed and now, instead of a horse as the leading character it's a hot alpha. In high school TL took a creative writing class where she received high praise for her work. At that same time though, boys caught her interest and any urge to write went via the way side. It wasn't until she married and had two kids, that TL put any thought in to writing. And even then it was close to a year before any words were put on paper. Amazingly those words were the direct result of a question "Do you want to give it a try?" from an Author TL idolizes. If it weren't for that question she may never have realized her love for writing and wouldn't have her first work releasing in January 2018. She currently maintains a 9 to 5 day job and fulfills her love of writing in the evening. She has a son in college and one that says he's never going to college. She also has a cat who thinks its a dog and two dogs that actually are dogs.
