Moving to Rosewood to be close to my aunt and start my floral business has been my dream since I was a little girl. For years, I’ve worked tirelessly to save every penny to make this my reality. I’ve missed out on so much, but it’s all been worth it to see my dreams come true. Until those dreams are literally crushed before my eyes by an out-of-control car. The driver of the car is a scared, lonely girl, and despite my devastation, I can’t bring myself to be angry with her. The accident wasn’t her fault, after all. When I learn who she is—and who her brother is—I quickly find myself in over my head and falling for the one man in town I should avoid at all costs. But when I see his dark side, I can’t help but wonder what I’ve gotten myself into. I’m not usually a runner, but fleeing Rosewood—and the man I love—might be my only option.
Vlad
As the local Bratva boss, I have a certain reputation among the residents of Rosewood. But I don’t care what others think of me. The only person in this world who truly matters to me is my baby sister. When I learn she’s been in a car accident, I can’t get to the hospital fast enough. I’m unprepared for the sight that greets me in her hospital room. The beautiful redhead my sister says helped her after the accident is like no woman I’ve ever seen. I’m drawn to her immediately and ready to make her mine. But when I learn what—and who—caused my sister’s accident, there’s no stopping the monster inside me from taking over. My dark side scares Rue, and when she runs, I’m forced to give chase. This little flower is mine, after all. I’m not letting her go, and I’ll do anything to convince her to stay.
