How can an abandoned child learn to trust and love again? Abandoned by their mother when they were 15 and 10, respectively, Quinn and Annie are very close as siblings. Outwardly, they are normal people; Quinn is a successful lawyer while Annie is a successful artist and engaged to be married to a medical doctor. But they are unfulfilled.For 18 years, they thought their mother, Evie Burnes was dead; but out of nowhere, she comes back needing Quinn's help because someone wanted to kill her. Meanwhile, in between dealing with Annie's love life and protecting his mother from her would-be killer, Quinn also found himself getting involved with "Danielle."She looks and acts like a battered woman but Quinn"s gut tells him that there is something more than meets the eyes about Danielle. Harder still is that Quinn finds himself very attracted to her.Fast-paced and tightly written, the author has her grips on you for the first page. Three subplots all help to make the main plot exciting. As you discover more about each character, you want to more. And it is so tempting to read the ending. Thank goodness this is on Kindle or I would have done that. Because is I cheated and read the ending first, then I would have lost out in this beautifully told story of love, redemption and forgiveness.
