Angela Corcoran is perfectly content with her life. Okay, maybe perfectly isn't the best word to use. Or content for that matter. She has her hobbies and her career as a forensic scientist, and she knows better than to hope for love. Apparently, her new friends haven't gotten the message and aren't happy with her sitting on the sidelines. They are determined she needs to live a little. For some reason, they think this should include a man. A gorgeous man. A man who makes all of her parts stand up and shout. A much younger man. Like she has any idea what to do with one of those.
His entire life, Jonathan Stephens believed he would find "the one," like his dad. He lets growing the family business consume him, but he never gave up that dream. A glance across a crowded room places a vision directly in his sights, and he knows instantly. She is it. Finally. His angel is adept at throwing roadblocks into his pursuit, however. Jon isn't going to let that deter him though. He knows what he wants, and he is going to get it.
When a case she is working on takes a weird twist, Angela finds herself in the crosshairs. Somehow, with what she believed is her world imploding around her, she finds solace in Jon. Yet, she's not the only one with danger on their heels. The growing threat to Stephens Construction and Jon's family makes him a target too.
With danger surrounding them, maybe it's easier for Angela to protect herself and stay away. Jon's determined to be the one she can break on; they just have to survive to do it.
