Kane

Dead to their pasts. Ghosts. No family ties. No connections.

Six men with a top-secret mission move to a small town where they have to navigate local life, protect their secret, and, above all, stay single.

Notorious charmer Kane "Demon" Fox learned the hard way that love is a liability. Since losing his wife, he's built walls no one can breach-keeping his focus on the mission and his team. Feelings are a risk he can't afford to take ever again.

Until a stranded beauty with haunted eyes makes him question everything.

Daphne Bryant thought Sutton's Creek was far enough to outrun her past. With forged papers and a fabricated history, she's desperate for a fresh start in a small town where people are decent and life is uncomplicated. She's joined a book club, found friends, and landed a job working for six gorgeous men who run the local gun range.

She's safe and thriving-until someone breaks into her apartment and leaves a calling card she recognizes all too well.

Trusting the wrong person could be fatal, but Daphne's running out of time-and Kane is a friend, even if she wants him to be more. As danger circles closer, the attraction between them becomes impossible to deny. Vows break, hearts and bodies tangle, and secrets implode.

If Kane's going to save the woman he desperately doesn't want to love, he'll have to realize that the past doesn't control the future. Because some ghosts aren't meant to stay buried. And some hearts are worth fighting for.
