Since losing her husband in combat, Kendall Smith has forged an independent and satisfying life, running catamaran excursions around the reefs surrounding Key West. As a devout Christian, faith and morality guide her. So when she suspects her new neighbor, the lust-inspiring David Bryce, of dealing drugs, there’s no question that she and her quaint neighborhood need him jailed.
Six years...and possibly his soul. That’s what ambition has cost David Bryce. After turning his back on his former career with the Key West PD, his inside knowledge gained him tremendous status within the very cartel he once pursued. Vowing that nothing and no one will stand between him and the score of a lifetime, even the lure of ‘redemption’ in the arms of the luscious blonde next door won’t forestall him.
But attraction is as reckless as a tidal wave, driving them both into treacherous waters. Behaving in ways she never imagined, will Kendall’s faith founder? Can love truly save and redeem? What Kendall and Bryce discover about each other will threaten more than this young widow’s sensibilities, and push the limits of what even Bryce will sacrifice. Can he love her without killing her?
