In the heart of the redwoods, a madman waits . . . Recovering from a broken engagement, Brooke Wakefield escapes to her grandmother's home deep in the redwood forest, determined to start over. Not an easy task when her teenage crush lives next door. The last thing she needs is another man to break her heart, but Dillon's sexy smile still sends her heat level soaring. Dillon Tremayne isn't looking for a relationship. With a young son, an eccentric grandfather, and a logging company running him ragged, he can't afford any romantic entanglements. Too bad Brooke's humor and strength-not to mention her kisses-are so hard to resist. When a woman from his past is brutally murdered and another disappears, Dillon is heartsick-and terrified the killer will target Brooke next. Can Brooke and Dillon find love in the heart of the forest? Or will a madman's twisted fantasy destroy their chance at happiness?
