BLURB: 

Keeping secrets is dangerous…and painful. 

The last man who found out Lizzy MacLaughlin’s secret left without so much as a goodbye. Now, utterly in love, Lizzy holds her breath that her six-month relationship with retired army ranger, Ethan Hart, won’t end the same way. 

Life is never perfect…or easy. 

Ethan is head-over-heels in love with Lizzy, and warring schedules make time together precious. Determined to be together without interruptions, they plan a weekend getaway at his lake house –unaware the past Ethan is trying to ignore is coming hell-bent on destroying what Ethan holds most dear. 

Will Lizzy’s secret tear them apart, or will something far worse threaten their very lives?

EXCERPT:

 

“Mom has given the stink eye to every guy that’s ever taken me out. She has to make up for Dad not being here.” 

A surge of jealousy wormed its way into his mind. “How many guys have you been out with?” 

“Simmer down, soldier.” She giggled and winked. “My love life is boring and consists of one guy in high school and two guys in college. I wasn’t a nun, but it wasn’t like I got around either. You have nothing to be all caveman about.” 

“Sorry, I was having a moment.” He really was. The thought of any other man touching her, kissing her, putting hands anywhere on her body made his blood boil. 

“No worries, but would you mind terribly going and getting me a plate of bread and cheese. I swear the buffet smells like something died and then came back to life, but I’m starving and desperate.” 

His concerns returned full-force with her joking comment about smelly food. Something was going on with her. It’d been nearly a week since he’d seen her eat any meant and that was very out of character. 

“Sit here, baby. I’ll be right back.” He helped her into a chair at an empty table and then went to the buffet table.

 

The spread of food ranged from deliciously smelling barbeque, mashed potatoes, corn, rolls, cole slaw, and trays of crackers, cheese, and fruit. Nothing smelled out of the ordinary to him, but he grabbed an assortment of crackers and cheese, along with a few pieces of fruit, just in case she might want some. 

He walked back to her and set the plate in front of her along with another glass of water he’d snagged from a passing server. 

“Thank you.” She smiled and popped a cracker in her mouth. 

“Anything for you, baby. I’m sorry you aren’t feeling well.” 

“I’ll be fine. I promise. I’m already feeling better,” she answered and bit into a slice of cheese. “This is really good.” 

“Little sis, you okay?” Karen said you weren’t feeling well.” Caiden’s voice over his shoulder startled him. He was the only one of Lizzy’s brothers who could sneak up on him. 

“I’m fine, Caiden. Don’t you dare go telling Trevor or Harvey. I got a little overheated outside. I’m fine. Ethan is taking good care of me.” 

Her big brother snorted and Ethan bit back a grin. The MacLaughlin brothers all liked him, but after walking into the dressing room this morning with Lizzy’s sparkly lip-gloss smeared on his mouth, they were rescinding their approval temporarily.

“I’ll come back in a little while and check on you again.”

Ethan turned in his chair and met Caiden’s hard glare. “I won’t leave her.” 

“I know.” Caiden sighed and nodded. He stepped toward his sister and gave her a kiss on the cheek. 

She smiled and patted her brother’s arm. “You worry too much. Go back to Lina and enjoy the party.”
