Elaina

One. Terrifying. Night.

That’s all it took to change everything Jake Dimarco knew and believed.  After watching his brother gunned down in a parking lot and learning his ex-girlfriend had played a part in that attack, Jake has to make some tough decisions about his life and his son.

After all there’s no one to blame but himself.

Moving into a new home with his son is supposed to be a fresh start, a way to begin building the life for them that his son deserves.

And he intends to do that alone.

But his family has other plans.

Elaina Jones loves her life, although at times it can be somewhat lonely.  That all changes after Jake moves next door and the entire Dimarco family decides to make her their business.  Her once quiet life becomes loud, filled with laughter and new friends.  No matter how much she tries to deny her feelings for Jake, their connection is too strong, their chemistry too intense.

But not everyone is happy that Elaina has become part of the family.

With a gunman at large and Jake’s past proving dangerous, he makes choices to right the many wrongs he feels he’s guilty of and to keep his family safe.  But those decisions come at the expense of himself and the woman who’s become more important to him than he ever believed she could.  

Together will they be able to survive one person’s vengeance and their frightening need to destroy Jake and Elaina?

Or is there a time when even love just isn’t enough?
