About this ebook
Travis Barnes isn't looking for a happy ever after
Unlike his brothers, he doesn't think he deserves one. As a teenager, he broke the heart of the girl he'd fallen in love with and he's never forgiven himself. He sure as hell doesn't expect her forgiveness.
Since then, he fell into a dangerous double life, one nobody, not even his twin, could begin to guess at. He accepts the risks, hoping to atone for his sins and save others like he couldn't save his former love. When an assignment lands him in the hospital with a near fatal injury, his handler gives him a choice, take a break...or he's out.
The last thing Travis expects is for his handler to put him up in a house next to her, the woman he's never been able to forget...
Bella Franklin was once known as Isabel Steele, daughter of a high-powered, corrupt U.S. District Attorney. Meeting Travis Barnes had been the one good thing in her life—then he'd abandoned her.
Years later, living in witness protection, she takes care of foster kids and pretends she's forgotten him...until the day she finds herself face to face with an unforgettable gaze the color of the ocean. Travis Barnes, the boy who nearly broke her, is now a man who carries shadows in his eyes and holds far too many secrets.
The fire still burns between them. But can she forgive his betrayal, forgive his abandonment? And can she trust the secretive man he's become?
Trigger warning: this story involves miscarriage, infertility and off-page references to abuse suffered by the heroine (not caused by the hero). This book also touches on teen transgender issues such as bullying and dysphoria as one of the heroine's foster children is trans. It also involves found family, forgiveness and two battered souls who find their way back to each other.

This book was a difficult to put down. I enjoyed the story and the characters. I hope this becomes a series.
