About this book

Pain. That's a word Bailey Winsor knows well, having endured it since she was a child from the people that were supposed to protect her. Just when her life appears normal, something Bailey has never experienced, she meets a man and falls in love. Love can be deceiving. Bailey jumps from the frying pan that was her childhood and into the burning bowels of hell, which is her sick and twisted husband. It's hopeless. Suffering more years of abuse, Bailey eventually realizes that she has no choice but to run. Forced to stop in a small town in Ohio, Bailey encounters a town full of people that welcome her with open arms, especially Jaxon Walker, the tattooed and pierced local bar owner. Bailey has secrets she's unwilling to reveal. Jaxon senses her fear and refuses to give up trying to discover them. Will Bailey be brave enough and learn to trust Jaxon with her deepest secrets? Will Jaxon be strong enough to protect Bailey when her past comes knocking at her door?
